HP Virtualization Manager with Logical Server Manager 6.2 User Guide

Figure 3-2 Components of an Insight Dynamics compartment
1
The selection check box selects a compartment for which you can apply an action from the
gray Insight Dynamics menu bar (see “Insight Dynamics menus” (page 12)). If a compartment
contains subcompartments, as the Integrity VM Host compartment does in the previous
example, you must also select the check box for any subcompartment that you want to
manage. Deselect a selected compartment by checking its selection check box.
NOTE: When you check the selection check box for a given system, it preselects that system
for HP SIM menu bar actions. For example, when you select Options→Identify Systems...
from the HP SIM menu bar, the system you selected is displayed in the list of systems SIM
identifies.
2
HP SIM system status indicator icons. The meaning of the status icon appears when you
hover over the icon. Information on all possible status icons can be displayed by selecting
Legend... at the top of the System Status section of the left navigation area.
3
The compartment name identifies the type of node being displayed (for example, a standalone
system, an Integrity VM Host, or a Virtual Connect domain group). If there are
subcompartments, the default view lists them within the top level compartment. Figure 3-2
shows that a node named citrine is a standalone server.
In the Logical Server perspective in the Visualization View, you can drag and drop a logical
server onto another server by clicking and holding the compartment name, then dragging
and dropping it into another compartment. A logical server is identified by the logical server
icon in the compartment. For more information on logical server features, see Chapter 4
(page 41).

The Expand Compartment button and Collapse Compartment button lets you expand
or collapse detailed information (technology icons, meters) in a compartment or
subsompartment, and display subcompartments if they exist. In a collapsed compartment,
you can hover over the Expand Compartment button for informational text:
• If there are subcompartments, the hover text indicates the number of subcompartments
that exist and that full details will be displayed.
• If there are no subcompartments, the hover text indicates that expanding the
compartment shows full details.
