HP Insight Cluster Management Utility Managing a cluster with HP Insight CMU, Administrator menu

6 Managing a cluster with HP Insight CMU

Cluster management tasks can be performed on one or more nodes with HP Insight CMU. These tasks depend on your privileges and the number of selected nodes.

6.1 Unprivileged user menu

When the HP Insight CMU GUI is in normal mode, you can only monitor node status and visualize static data. You cannot perform any other action on the cluster nodes because of potentially destructive actions.

6.2 Administrator menu

When the HP Insight CMU GUI is in administrator mode, you can perform all available actions on the cluster nodes. For information about administrator mode, see “Administrator mode” (page 33). When one or more nodes are selected, you can access a contextual menu with a right-click. The contextual menu enables you to execute actions on selected nodes. This contextual menu is available in network entity, logical group, and user group views. This menu is also accessible by right-clicking in the overview frame.
