HP Matrix Operating Environment 7.0 Getting Started Guide

NOTE: Menu selections vary between the Matrix OE visualization tabs (Visualization tab and
Workload tab) and the tabs that take you outside the Matrix OE visualization (i.e., the Shared
Resource Domain tab and Planning tab). The page title indicates the management application for
the selected tab, for example, Matrix OE visualization or Planning.
Menu selections are disabled if any of the following circumstances exist:
• A required selection has not been made. For example, Modify→Workload Definition... is
enabled only after you select a workload.
• Ambiguous selections have been made. For example, if you select more than one workload,
Modify→Workload Definition... is not enabled.
Be sure to select the checkbox to select the appropriate system or systems before choosing a menu
selection from the Matrix OE menu bar.
The following menu options are available from the Matrix OE menu bar. See the online help for
each menu selection to learn more.
