About the Right-Click Menu Options
When you right-click an element on the Topology tab or in the Backup Applications tree, you see a
drop-down menu. The options displayed in the menu depend on the type of element clicked.
See the following table for an explanation of the options displayed for elements right-clicked on the
Topology tab or in the Backup Applications tree.

Menu Option
Description
Go To Navigation Details This menu option redirects you to the Navigation page. If the
element is labeled “Discovered,” you are shown the Properties
page. Elements are labeled “Discovered” when the management
server has discovered the element, but it cannot obtain additional
information about it. See ”About the Navigation Tab” on
page 311.
Show Events Displays events for the selected element. See ”About the Events
Tab” on page 330.
Show Policies Displays policies for the selected element. See ”About the Policies
Tab” on page 334.
Show Collectors Displays report collectors for the selected element. See ”About the
Collectors Tab” on page 333.
Show Chargeback Displays chargeback for the selected element. See ”About the
Monitoring Tab” on page 333.
Update Element Data The management server gathers new and changed details from
the element and then redraws the topology with the updated
information.
Important:
• Do not update element data during Get Topology or Discovery
Data Collection/Get Details. You can determine if the
management server is getting the topology or all element
details by looking at the label near the status button.
• The Update Element Data functionality does not detect element
components that have been removed, such as ports and LUNs.
For example, assume you removed several LUNs from an array.
If you right-click the storage system and select Update
Element Data, the LUNs still appear in the user interface. You
must perform Discovery Data Collection/Get Details for the
deleted LUNs to be removed from the user interface. See ”Step
4 - Discovery Data Collection or Get Details” on page 98.
