Viewing Element Topology and Properties 276
Closing Topology Windows
Whenever you select a new topology view, the software creates a pane for that view.
To lessen the number of panes open, do the following:
1. Right-click the tab of one of the views.
2. Select one of the following from the menu:
• Close - Closes the current topology pane in System Manager.
• Close All - Closes all of the topology panes in System Manager.
• Close All But Current - Closes all of the topology panes in System Manager, except the
current one.
Using the Global View
If you have a large storage network, navigating it can be daunting, especially if it cannot fit in the
pane. The global view ( ) provides a high-level view of the network. With this view, you can move
the viewing area to a certain section of the network.
1. Click the button at the top of the screen.
A smaller pane displaying high-level view of the topology appears.
2. Move the brackets so they enclose the area of the network you want to view in the main pane.
Printing the Topology
To print the topology displayed in System Manager:
1. Click Tools > Storage Essentials > System Manager in HP Systems Insight Manager.
2. If the topology spans more than one screen, arrange the elements so they are closer together,
preferably on one screen. This prevents the printout from appearing too stretched. To move an
element, click the button and then click the element you want to move. Drag the element to its
new location.
3. Click the button.
4. The Paper tab shows the page setup. If you want the default settings, click Default. You can
modify the following settings:
IMPORTANT: Before you change the margins, decide on a unit of measurement.
• Paper format - Select the paper size from the menu.
• Unit - Select cm (centimeters) or inch for the margins.
• Paper width - To modify the width of the paper, select the Custom option in the Paper format
menu.
• Paper height - To modify the measurement in this box, select the Custom option in the Paper
format menu.
• Top margin - Enter a measurement.
