Topology Views 665
Context Menus
If you right-click an icon, or the background, context menus appear. Refer to Action Button / Right-
Click Menu on page 213 for information about more available menu items. Their exact content
depends on the selection, but can include the following items:
-
Set Layout Root —If your Properties have a selected layout that requires a root (like
Hierarchical ), then this item makes the selected object the root of that layout.
-
Remove —Deletes the selected icon from the view. If you click Remove on a primary object (one
not present because of filtering), it deletes the object from the Topology view. If you remove a
secondary object (one present because of filtering), it’s hidden.
-
Center —Move the selected icon to the center of the view. This does not center icons on the edge
of the view, but makes its best effort to move the selected icon toward the center. Best
practice is to zoom first, then center.
-
Refresh —Update the display.
-
Zoom In / Out / 100% —These manipulate the magnification of the selected view. Saving does
not preserve magnification, but it will preserve the placement of icons onscreen.
- Expand / Collapse —This displays the selected object’s sub-components (assuming they have
been discovered), or hides them once again if you have already expanded them.
- Drill Down —Goes from parent object to child object(s), opening another viewer.
-
Highlight / Unhighlight —Paints the selected icon a different color, or toggles the highlight off.
-
Hide —Conceal the selected object in this view.
-
Open —Opens the appropriate editor for the selected object; for example, the Resource Editor.
-
Delete —Lets you delete the selected object, after confirming that is what you want to do.
-
Map —Display the single, selected item in its own, new view, alone.
-
Print Test Page —Appears if the selected object is a printer.
-
Direct Access —Opens a browser (or command line) session with the selected object. (See Direct
Access Details on page 215 for more about cut thru sessions.)
-
Replace Drum / Fuser / Roller / Network Adaptor —Opens the service log for the selected
printer to log these replacements.
-
Update HTTP Password / SNMP Communities —Lets you update the authentication for the
selected printer.
-
Decommission Printer —Stops polling and thresholding on the selected printer.
-
Initiate / Stop Printer Polling —Starts or stops polling for reports and consumables estimates.
-
Restart Printer —Restarts the selected printer.
-
New Group —Lets you make a new group that would use OpenManage Network Manager’s
optional Group Operations.
-
Add to Group —Lets you add the selected object to a group.
