Viewing Objects and Object Properties
Objects in the system are displayed in the “Main Window and Tabular View.”
The tree is a hierarchical display of object groups. The Tabular View displays a table of objects and
a limited set of properties.
In the VEA client, objects typically represent entities in the product domain.
For example, in the case of VERITAS Volume Manager, the object might be a disk.
You can use the views to browse objects and guide the operation of the client console.
There are three main views:
◆ Navigation View, at the left, which uses the tree structure
◆ Detailed View, at the right, which used table structure
◆ Status View, at the bottom
