Starting online help for group manager
In addition to tooltips and command-line help for the GUI and CLI, online help is available for the Group Manager
GUI. An internet connection is required to use online help, which is served from a Web site in the Dell.com
domain. You have the option to install the help on your local system or a private Web server.
Note: Setting the online help to a local
path only applies to users of the local system.
The online help is context-sensitive. Click any of the question mark icons embedded in the
Group Manager GUI to
open a specific help topic. You can also open the help in a browser, and use the table of contents or search option to
find information.
To launch online help from the Web site, in the GUI’
s far-left panel, expand Tools and click Online Help.
To launch online help locally (from your system):
1. Log on to the Customer Support Web site and na
vigate to the downloads area.
2. Copy the folder named
eqlgmhlpnn (where nn corresponds to the PS Series firmware release, such as 5.0).
3. Save the contents of folder to on a
local disk, a network share, or Web server repository. The top-level file in
the help hierarchy in this folder is named
groupmanager.htm. For example: c:/eqlgmhlp50.
4. Start the Group Manager GUI.
5. Click
Tools, then User Preferences, then General tab.
6. In the User Preferences – General dialog box, enter the new help
directory location in the Location of
online help files field
and click OK. For example:
file:///c:/eqlgmhlp50
http://servername/eqlgmhlp50
file:///system.directory.company.com/myhelpshare/eqlgmhlp50
7. Click any help icon to test the revised help location.
Depending on your
browser choice, and the local internet security settings,
you might need to configure browser
access to the help folder. For example, for Internet Explorer, you might need to add the help URL to the list of
trusted sites:
1. Start Internet Explorer and go to
Tools, then Internet Options.
2. Select the Security tab and click Trusted Sites, then Sites.
3. Add the group’s IP or management address to the list of
trusted sites, using the format: http://
group_ip_address
. (Do not select the option to require server verification.)
4. Close both dialog boxes.
