Chapter 1 Introduction
1.3.4 Main Display
The Main Display appears to the right of the View panel. The Main Display shows information
relevant for the current view. For example, when the Volume View is displayed (as shown in
Figure 1-6), the Main Display provides radio buttons for sorting the information shown by
volume name or iSCSI initiator, along with the volumes and iSCSI initiators associated with
the xStack Storage system being managed.

1.3.5 Action Panels
Below the View panel are action panels. Most views show two action panels.
The top panel contains actions relevant to the current view and any item selected in the
Main Display. The top panel acquires its name from the current view. In Volume View, for
example, the top panel becomes the Volume Actions panel and contains actions associated
with volumes. If you switch to Physical Storage View, the tops panel changes to the Drive
Actions panel and displays actions related to drives. If there are no actions available for the
current view, such as in System Administrator View, the top panel disappears.
There are times when the top panel and the Detail Tabs below the Main Display work
together. In Volume View, for example, clicking Show Advanced Extents in the Volume
Actions panel (see Figure 1-7) displays advanced extent information in the Extents tab.
The System Actions panel appears below the top panel. The System Actions panel always
contains the same five actions and is displayed for all views.
