Components of the Main Console Window
Rename Group
Allows you to change the name of the selected group in either the Organization topology or the
Task Groups topology.
Delete Group
Allows you to delete any group with one exception: the
“
Organization Tree
”
group in the
Organization topology cannot be deleted.
Whenever an add/delete/rename operation has completed successfully, a message will indicate
such in the Status frame of the main AdminWorks Console window.
NOTE: You can also add, delete, and rename groups using the commands on the Group
Menu.
Workgroup Frame
The Workgroup frame is the central frame of the AdminWorks Console window. It displays the
discovered/un-managed or managed systems, and the results of searches for specific systems.
For example, in the Topology frame, you can select Managed Systems, UnManaged Systems,
and/or a particular group. The related systems will then be shown in the Workgroup frame.
The icons at the top of the Workgroup frame provide convenient shortcuts for you to switch the
view and filter the view. Hover the mouse pointer over an icon to view the ToolTip for that icon.
These functions are also available on the View Menu, and are explained later in this User
’
s
Manual in the View Menu section.
You can filter the view to display only the:
