You can switch the view so that the systems are displayed as:
Large Icons
Small Icons
Detail List
Also in the View Menu sub-section entitled Detail List, you will find information about
adding/removing columns, re-arranging column sequence, sorting information by column, and
moving column dividers within the Workgroup frame. Detail List view is illustrated below.
When you use the above icons to change the view, the change is temporary; that is, it is not
saved when you exit. Each time AdminWorks is invoked, it will revert back to the default view
that you have specified in the Console Menu > Preferences... > View tab > Workgroup Frame
field.
The name of the currently selected group will be shown at the top of the Workgroup frame. In
the example below, no specific group has been selected. All Managed Systems are being
displayed in this example. You can drag-and-drop a system to a group in the Topology frame,
or use menu commands to add systems to groups as explained later in the Client Menu
section.
This frame cannot be hidden, but it can be re-sized by dragging the left, right, and/or bottom
border of the frame to the desired position.
The illustration of the Workgroup frame below shows the pop-up menu that appears when you
right-click on a system, and also shows Detail List view as being the active view.
