Tree view hierarchy
The tree view displays status data for each system. The status icon is located in the left of the tree view next
to the selection checkbox. If the status of the system is Unknown, no status icon appears. If the systems are
containers, the status to the left of the container name is shown as the most critical status of the systems in
the container, including the container status itself. The status of the container itself is displayed to the right
of the system name along with a system type label.
Selection in the tree view
When a container can be selected independently of the contents, the selection control for the tree view cycles
through four states using the following check icons:
•
First, initial state, nothing selected.
•
Second state, both the container and the contents are selected. If the contents were not already expanded,
the next level of children is expanded to show the selection.
•
Third state, all contents are recursively selected. The children are expanded (if not already) to show
they are selected. Only the next level is expanded.
•
Fourth state, just the container is selected.
NOTE:
If a collection is selected and the collection selects its contents, the checkboxes are disabled.
Available drilldowns
The tree view contains hyperlinks for the system name and status icon drilldowns. When you click a system
name, the System Page for that particular system appears. The status icons drilldown to the status URL for
that system, unless the status icon is the status icon to the left of a container. Clicking the roll-up status of a
branch loads a table view of all the systems in that branch that match the roll-up status. Thus, you are
presented with all the systems that are contributing to the severity of the roll-up status. For example, if the
status icon to the left of the rack is Critical, and you click the icon, a table view of all the systems in the rack
with the status of Critical are displayed.
Selection states for collections
In the tree view, you cannot select a collection and the members of the same collection simultaneously. When
a collection is selected, the members are displayed and their selection boxes are disabled. The selection
states for a collection are as follows:
•
The initial state, nothing is selected.
•
The collection itself is selected, and the contents of the collection are disabled.
•
.
The members of collection are selected; the collection itself is unselected
Additionally, a checkbox at the top of the tree enables you to select the collection that is being viewed.
When the checkbox is selected, all the checkboxes under the collection are cleared and disabled. When
the checkbox is cleared, the checkboxes under the collection become selectable.
