Navigate the System Message Tab
The navigation of the System Message tab contains a tree of active and other systems. The right
pane displays the system message for the selected active system. If an “other” system is selected,
the system’s definition is displayed. Otherwise, selecting the My Active Systems or the My
Other Systems folders displays a table displaying information about the systems under the
folder.
Create a System Message
To create a system message:
1. Log on as a Publisher user (super.services, or a member of ROLE.MGR or ROLE.DBA).
2. Click the Monitoring area. For more information, see “Select an Area” (page 25) .
3. Type the system message text in the right pane.
4. Click [ Apply ].
The right pane has a header section that displays the system definition used to communicate
with the system. It also has a tab called System Message, which is comprised of a header section,
text area that displays rich-text, and a button bar at the bottom.
The header section displays the message last updated time when docked within the main HPDM
window. When cloned into another window, the header displays the connection name and the
last updated time.
NOTE: In HPDM, all date times are converted to the UTC local time.
The text area is displayed as an editable window if the user is connecting to the system as a
Publisher user. Otherwise, the text area is read-only for all other users.
The button bar contains [ Apply ] and [ Refresh ].
[ Apply ] is enabled if a Publisher modifies the text within the text area. When clicked, the text
is updated to the server.
[ Refresh ] causes the text area to be synchronized with the data from the server. If there are
changes made to the text area since the last refresh, a confirmation dialog box asks if it is okay
to lose the local changes.
For all other users, [ Apply ] is hidden and only [ Refresh ] appears.
