The Menu Bar
Windows
Selecting Windows from the View Menu opens the submenu illustrated below.
These three commands function as on/off toggles, allowing you to hide and re-display these
frames temporarily during the current AdminWorks Console session. By default, they are
displayed, as indicated by the checkmarks on the sub-menu.
If desired, you can permanently change the default display settings for Topology, Information,
and Status, using the Console Menu > Preferences... > View tab, as explained earlier in that
section. But if you only want to make a temporary display change, the View Menu is
convenient.
For illustrations and explanations of these frames, please refer back to the sections entitled
Topology Frame, Information Frame, and Status Frame.
All Systems
The Workgroup frame displays the Managed Systems or UnManaged Systems, depending on
which is selected in the Topology frame. By default, All Systems is active (both on-line and
off-line systems will be displayed). If you previously selected Online Systems from the View
Menu to display only the systems currently on-line, and then decide you want to switch back to
displaying all systems, select All Systems. (Selecting All Systems will automatically de-select
Online Systems.)
Alternatively, at the top of the Workgroup frame, you can click the
icon to display all
systems.
Online Systems

which is selected in the Topology frame. By default, both on-line and off-line systems are

select Online Systems from the View Menu. Selecting Online Systems will automatically de-
select All Systems on the View Menu.
Alternatively, at the top of the Workgroup frame, you can click the
icon to display only the
on-line systems.
