Elements of the XTCC window XTCC
8.4.5 Group display
When CentricStor components are displayed, there may be more configuration elements
(e.g. virtual drives) than can be displayed in a single window. At the same time, you may
often want to monitor operations at multiple CentricStor ISPs simultaneously. Without the
appropriate tools, this can make your screen difficult to interpret.
In XTCC, both problems are solved by the use of an overview window display.
If required, the display of the CentricStor components (e.g. ICP) can be subdivided into
groups and presented on a number of different tab sheets. Therefore only one out of a
number of different groups - represented by a tab sheet - is displayed. The tab sheet
indicates which group is currently being displayed and the number of groups into which the
display of the CentricStor components is divided.
Once XTCC is started and you have selected a unit or file, the group display is generated
automatically. It shows all components and their status in the form of color boxes. In the
case of large systems, it allows you to choose a group of logically related objects, and view
detailed information on them on a tab sheets in the configuration display without having to
scroll up and down.
Object names are shown in abbreviated form.
