Using The Online Help

Context-sensitive online help is available for every window of the Server Administrator home page. Clicking Help opens an independent help window that contains detailed information about the specific window you are viewing. The online help is designed to guide you through the specific actions required to perform all aspects of the Server Administrator services. Online help is available for all windows you can view, based on the software and hardware groups that Server Administrator discovers on your system and your user privilege level.

Using The Preferences Home Page

The left-hand pane of the Preferences home page (where the system tree is displayed on the Server Administrator home page) displays all available configuration options in the system tree window.

The available Preferences home page configuration options are:

•General Settings

•Server Administrator

You can view the Preferences tab after you log in to manage a remote system. This tab is also available when you log in to manage the Server Administrator Web server or manage the local system.

Like the Server Administrator home page, the Preferences home page has three main areas:

•The global navigation bar provides links to general services.

– Click Home to return to the Server Administrator home page.

•The left-hand pane of the Preferences home page (where the system tree is displayed on the Server Administrator home page) displays the preference categories for the managed system or the Server Administrator Web server.

•The action window displays the available settings and preferences for the managed system or the Server Administrator Web Server.

The following figure shows a sample Preferences home page layout.
