• Right Pane (Grid)
The right pane contains a grid, which is a tabular display of objects
and their properties. The grid displays objects that belong to the
group icon that is currently selected in the object tree (left pane).
The splitter is the vertical bar that separates the object tree from the
grid. You can resize the left and right panes by pressing and holding the
mouse button over the splitter and dragging the splitter to the left or
right.

menus:
• File
The File menu establishes new host connections, closes the main
window, provides access to an object Properties window, or exits
VEA.
• Tools
The Tools menu saves or loads user preferences, removes any alert
icons from the status area, and sets VERITAS Volume Manager to
