Symbol
In NetView a symbol represents just one object in the NetView database in the NetView map. The status of a symbol can be determined from the following three sources:
–from the status of the associated object,
–from the status of all subordinate symbols (i.e. symbols in the submap of that symbol)
–from the symbol’s own status
(regardless of the object represented - this enables objects to be represented by symbols with different statuses, depending on the object context).
ServerView device
This manual uses the term ServerView device to refer to objects from the NetView database for which the properties ServerViewObj and Node are set and which are represented by at least one symbol of the type Computer:FujitsuSiemens Primergy in the NetView map.
The physical devices corresponding to these objects should be
Fujitsu Siemens PRIMERGY servers with installed ServerView agents. ServerView is the manager for these devices.
ServerView component object or ServerView component symbol
This manual uses the term ServerView component object to refer to the component object of a ServerView device. A component object is used to represent a specific hardware, software or logical component of a device. The ServerView component objects are managed by the Map application. They are used to represent the ServerView status of the associated ServerView device from the viewpoint of ServerView. The capabilities ServerViewObj and Software are set for these objects.
The ServerView component symbol is the graphic representation of the ServerView component object in the NetView map. It reflects the current status of the device from the viewpoint of ServerView and has the symbol type Software:FujitsuServerView.
