You
can also configure other widgets to provide a resource to the Health Tree widget. See “Configure Widget
Interactions,” on page 57.
Prerequisites
n

administrator can tell you which actions you can perform.
n
Open the Edit Widget window for the Health Tree widget. See “Edit a Widget Configuration,” on
page 52.
Procedure
1 Set Self Provider to On to define a resource in the widget configuration.
2 (Optional) To configure a fixed zoom level for resource icons in the widget display, set Auto Zoom To
Fixed Node Size to On and type an icon size, in pixels, in the Node Size (pixels) text box.
If your widget display contains many resources and you always need to use manual zooming, this feature
is particularly useful because it enables you to set the zoom level only once.
The widget shows resource icons at the pixel size that you configure. You can still click the Zoom to Fit
icon to change the size of the resource icons for the best possible fit in the widget. The fixed zoom level
feature is disabled by default.
3 Select the resource in the Resource Selection pane.
To find a specific resource, type all or part of the resource name in the Search text box and click the right
angle bracket (>).
The name of the resource that you select appears after Selected Resource.
4 (Optional) To limit the parent and child resources that the widget shows, select one or more tag values in
the Select which tags to filter pane.
You can use icons on the toolbar at the top of the pane to collapse, expand, and deselect all of the tags in
the list
When you select more than one value for the same tag, the widget shows resources that have either value.
When you select values for two or more tags, the widget shows only resources that have all of the values
that you select. When you click the Invert Result icon, the widget shows only resources that do not match
the tag values that you select.
5 Click OK to save the widget configuration.
