Using the console tree

The tree is located in the left pane of the console window. It displays a hierarchical view of your network environment and managed objects within your network. The Details view display depends on the object you have selected in the tree and your user role.

In the tree, click + to expand a managed object node, or click - to collapse the node.

Basic tree hierarchy

Farm administrators can create sites, views, and stores within the farm. The farm level tree is organized as follows:

  • Farm
    • Sites
    • Views
    • Stores

Site administrators generally manage those objects within sites to which they have privileges. Site’s contain provisioning servers, a virtual disk pool, device collections, and views. The site level tree is organized as follows:

  • Site
    • Servers
    • Device Collections
    • Virtual disk Pool
    • Virtual disk Update Management
    • Views

Using the details view

The right-hand pane of the console window contains the details view. This view provides information about the object selected in the tree, in table format. The types of objects that display in the view include provisioning servers, target devices, and vDisks. For more detailed information, right-click on the object, then select the Properties menu.

The tables that display in the details view can be sorted in ascending and descending order.

In the console, the objects that display and the tasks that you can perform depend on the assigned role.
