68 Server Administrator Services
Managing Your System
The Server Administrator home page defaults to the System object of the
system tree view. The default for the System object opens the Health
components under the Properties tab.
The Preferences home page defaults to the Access Configuration window
under the Preferences tab.
From the Preferences home page, you can restrict access to users with
User and Power User privileges, set the SNMP password, and configure user
settings and DSM SA Connection Service settings.
NOTE: Context-sensitive online help is available for every window of the Server
Administrator home page. Click Help to open an independent help window that
contains detailed information about the specific window you are viewing. The
online help is designed to guide you through the specific actions required to
perform all aspects of the Server Administrator services. Online help is available for
all windows you can view, based on the software and hardware groups that Server
Administrator discovers on your system and your user privilege level.
NOTE: You must have Administrator or Power User privileges to view many of the
system tree objects, system components, action tabs, and data area features that
are configurable. Additionally, only users logged in with Administrator privileges
can access critical system features such as the shutdown functionality included
under the Shutdown tab.
Managing System/Server Module Tree Objects
The Server Administrator system/server module tree displays all visible system
objects based on the software and hardware groups that Server Administrator
discovers on the managed system and on the user's access privileges.
The system components are categorized by component type. When you
expand the main object—"Modular Enclosure"—"System/Server Module"—
the major categories of system components that may appear are, "Main
System Chassis/Main System," "Software," and "Storage."
