User interface orientation tips
Views are often associated with several names or brief descriptions. To orient yourself, pay at tention to
the different ways a view is characterized.
• Link text: A navigation link leading to a view is often the m ost specific description of the view.
For example, clicking the View Service Status Detail For All Host Groups link displays the Service
Status Details for all Host Groups; clicking the View H ost Status Details For All Host Groups link
displays the Host Status Details for all H ost Groups.
• Gray-box heading: Some views have a gray box in the upper-left corner containing information
about the latest view update and update frequency. The heading sometimes provides an
additional characterization of the view.
For example, the gray-box heading for the Nagios Stats view is Performance Information,
indicating the view displays performance information about the Nagios monitoring process.
• Filter description: Information that is a subset of information o btained by filtering another view is
sometimes indicated by a gray box titled Display Filters. The box describes filtering used.
For example, the Service Problems view provides a subset of information in the Service Detail
view. The Display Filters box indicates Service Status Types shown are All Problems.
• Chart heading: Some views have several charts. The heading of the most prominent chart often
reflects the main purpose of the view.
For example, the most p rominent chart in the Service Detail view is titled Service Status Details For
All Hosts.
• HTML na me: Each PCC view has a descriptive HTML name. A view normally appears in the
browser as an HTML frame alongside the left menu, which is another frame. You usually see a
view's HTML name when you:
• Print only the view, not the view and left menu. Depending on the browser and its
configuration, the HTML name can appear in printed page headers.
