You can easily navigate between the different Inventory types’ details tabs. For example:
Š
While viewing the details of a VM, you can double-click a host server or repository name that
is listed in the first section on the VM’s
Summary tab to display the details tabs for the host or
repository instead of the VM’s tabs. The Inventory panel on the left remains unchanged. This
allows you to return to the VM’s details tabs by simply clicking the VM name in the Inventory
panel list.
Š
Conversely, you can view the details of a host server or a repository, then double-click a VM’s
name in the details to display the VM’s details tabs. You can return to the host or repository by
simply clicking its name in the Inventory panel list.
You can navigate through the details for each Inventory item by using the tabs, such as those
illustrated in
Figure 3-6 . Each Inventory type has the Summary and Event Log tabs plus other tabs
particular to its own details.
Tab viewing is sticky, meaning the last tab that you viewed for an item is displayed again when you
return to that item.
The Event Log tab provides access to details on the status of any jobs that have been run or are
running, no matter which VM operator initiated the action. You can open multiple views for logging
information.
Figure 3-7 and Figure 3-8 provide some examples:
