View a Cloud Pod Architecture Configuration
You can use View Administrator or the lmvutil command to view information about global entitlements,
pods, sites, and home sites.
This procedure shows how to use View Administrator to view information about global entitlements, pods,
sites, and home sites. To use the lmvutil command to view this information, see Chapter 5, “lmvutil
Command Reference,” on page 37.
Procedure
n
To list all of the global entitlements in your configuration, in View Administrator, select Catalog >
Global Entitlements.
You can use the View Administrator user interface for any View Connection Server instance in the pod
federation.
n
To list the desktop or application pools in a global entitlement, in View Administrator, select Catalog >
Global Entitlements, double-click the global entitlement name, and click the Local Pools tab.
Only the pools in the local pod appear on the Local Pools tab. If a global entitlement includes desktop
or application pools in a remote pod, you must log in to the View Administrator user interface for a
View Connection Server instance in the remote pod to see those pools.
