Workaround
Re-enter Virtualization Manager using the Tools
→Virtualization Manager... menu selection or by
clicking the All VSE Resources collection (or one of the collections under it) in Systems Insight
Manager's left pane. Then re-enter your search.
Navigation tips
When navigating between Virtualization Manager screens, do not use the browser Back button
to return to the previous page. Doing so removes the collections previously displayed and requires
that you restart the Virtualization Manager. Instead, use the navigation aids provided from the
screen you are viewing (for example, clicking the Go Back link or a tab).
User preferences tips
Use the Modify User Preferences screen to customize your view in the Virtualization Manager:
•
To view more systems in the Visualization View, use the Systems Insight Manager maximize
link or manually expand the size of your browser. This increases the number of compartments
Virtualization Manager can display across the screen.
•
Setting the Default collection in the user preferences restricts the view of systems to that
collection, and systems associated with them, when accessing Virtualization Manager from
the Systems Insight Manager menu bar (Tools
→Virtualization Manager...). By setting the user
preference to the collection you usually manage, you can prevent your view from being
unnecessarily cluttered with systems you do not manage when you enter through
Tools
→Virtualization Manager.... For more information on setting user preferences, see
“Modifying user preferences” (page 121)
Performance tips
Refine your collections to limit the scope of data retrieved and rendered in the browser. For example,
if you select Tools
→Virtualization Manager from the Systems Insight Manager menu bar (or All
VSE Resources from the System and Event Collections from the left-hand navigation), too many
systems displayed from this broad scope can slow performance. By simply choosing a subset
collection of typical nodes (for example, Standalone Servers), or creating a smaller customized
collection (see
“Creating a custom collection” (page 127)
), the scope is narrowed and data retrieval
and display time is enhanced.
