In this figure, the box on the left of the topology canvas shows a cluster with two hosts, and the box
on the right shows a cluster with four hosts. Both clusters are in the expanded view mode, so all of
the nodes are displayed. To minimize the view of a cluster, click the (-) button.
Figure 19 System Manager Cluster Representation
In the minimized view of a cluster, all of the nodes of the cluster are collapsed into a single box. To
expand the display to show all of the nodes, click on the (+) button.
In the minimized view, a dotted line from an application to a cluster indicates that the application
only runs on some of the clustered hosts. A solid line indicates that the application runs on all of the
clustered hosts.
Double-click a cluster to open the Properties page for the cluster. Double-click an individual cluster
node to open the Properties page for that node.
Clustering in Topology
Element topology expands System Manager’s view to show exactly which shared resources a
particular application instance uses. Individual paths from application nodes are listed in the path
tree as well.
For detailed information about viewing element topology, see ”Viewing Element Topology” on
