To run a quick query from the Query(s) list perform these steps:
1. Under the root of the GUI, select Query Management.
The list of queries appears.
2. Double-click the query name. The query returns results only when the objects in the query do
not have a status of Normal or Present.
If the query finds objects with a status that is anything other than Normal or Present, the objects
appear in a list. Figure 23 (page 46)1 shows such a list.
