Conventions
SPECTRUM Portable Management Applications — including the 7C0x
SmartSwitch module — can work with a number of different network
management systems running on several different operating systems and
graphical user interfaces. This versatility presents two documentation problems:
first, there is no standard terminology; and second, the appearance of the
windows will differ based on the graphical interface in use. For the sake of
consistency, the following conventions will be followed throughout this and other
SPMA guides.
Screen Displays
SPMA runs under a variety of different operating systems and graphical user
interfaces. To maintain a consistent presentation, screen displays in this and other
SPMA guides show an OSF/Motif environment. If you’re used to a different GUI,
don’t worry; the differences are minor. Buttons, boxes, borders, and menus
displayed on your screen may look a bit different from what you see in the guide,
but they’re organized and labelled the same, located in the same places, and
perform the same functions in all screen environments.
Some windows within SPMA applications can be re-sized; those windows will
display the standard window resizing handles employed by your windowing
system. Re-sizing a window doesn’t re-size the information in the window; it just
changes the amount of information that can be displayed (see
Figure 1-1
). When
you shrink a window, scroll bars will appear as necessary so that you can scroll to
view all the information that is available.
