System Tree

The system tree appears on the left side of the Server Administrator home page and lists the components of your system that are viewable. The system components are categorized by component type. When you expand the main object known as Modular Enclosure System/Server Module, the major categories of system/server module components that may appear are Main System Chassis/Main System, Software, and Storage.

To expand a branch of the tree, click the plus sign ( ) to the left of an object, or double-click the object. A minus sign ( ) indicates an expanded entry that cannot be expanded further.

Action Window

When you click an item on the system tree, details about the component or object appear in the data area of the action window. Clicking an action tab displays all available user options as a list of subcategories.

Clicking an object on the system/server module tree opens that component's action window, displaying the available action tabs. The data area defaults to a preselected subcategory of the first action tab for the selected object.

The preselected subcategory is usually the first option. For example, clicking the Main System Chassis/Main System object opens an action window in which the Properties action tab and Health subcategory are displayed in the window's data area.

Data Area

The data area is located below the action tabs on the right side of the home page. The data area is where you perform tasks or view details about system components. The content of the window depends on the system tree object and action tab that is currently selected. For example, when you select BIOS from the system tree, the Properties tab is selected by default and the version information for the system BIOS appears in the data area. The data area of the action window contains many common features, including status indicators, task buttons, underlined items, and gauge indicators.

The Server Administrator user interface displays the date in the <mm/dd/yyyy> format.

System/Server Module Component Status Indicators

The icons that appear next to component names show the status of that component (as of the latest page refresh).

Table 8. System/Server Module Component Status Indicators

Description Icon

The component is healthy (normal).

The component has a warning (non-critical) condition. A warning condition occurs when a probe or other monitoring tool detects a reading for a component that falls within certain minimum and maximum values. A warning condition requires prompt attention.
