Using Veritas Enterprise Administrator 33

Connecting and disconnecting hosts and domains

Running tasks from a popup menu

Once you have connected to a host, you can use a context-sensitive popup menu to launch a task on the selected object. A popup menu provides access to tasks or options appropriate for the selected object. Popup menus are available in the main window and most other windows.

To perform a task on an object with the popup menu

Right-click on the object and choose the appropriate task in the popup menu. If this launches a dialog box or wizard, complete the dialog box (or wizard).

Running tasks from the task assistant

Once you have connected to a host, you can use the VEA Task Assistant to launch a task on a selected object and activity, as shown in Figure 2-2.

The system host typically has multiple Symantec products installed on it. To be able to use the products, client console needs to connect to the system through an authentication channel.
