Session Window
Dashboard obtains object status and performance information via an active Host session to a
Neoview platform. Using the Session window, you can view, start, stop, and track the progress
of your Host Session. You can also synchronize the time and date between your workstation and
the server.
To open the Session window, select View > Session in the Browse window or click the Host icon
in the PC-Host Session Status display.
Session Log
You can view the progress of your Dashboard Host Session from the Session window. All Host
Session establishment and I/O activities appear in the log area of the Session window.
The Session log is useful for checking the status of your Host Session. If you are having difficulty
with your Host Session, view the Session log to determine the cause. The log always contains
the latest information about your host dialog, including version information about the CSG, SSG,
and SeeView products.
