Actions associated to objects
When you right-click a particular object in the object tree, a pop-up menu is displayed. The set of the
available menu items depends on the object type and the current object status. The actions (pop-up menu
items) that are available for the majority of object and container types are the following:
• New: creates a new object of the selected type, for example: new FSE library, new FSE media pool,
and so on.
• Configuration: opens the Configuration window for the selected object.
• Delete object: removes the selected object.
• Configuration File: opens the Configuration File window with the current configuration for the selected
object. The file can be saved to disk by clicking Save.
• New Window from this place: opens a new FSE Management Console client instance in which the
properties of the currently selected object are displayed in the right pane.
• Properties: opens the Properties window for the selected object.
There are two different types of actions:
• Plain action is executed immediately after it is triggered.
Example of a plain action is configuring, enabling or disabling an FSE drive.
• Advanced action creates an appropriate job that executes the required task.
Example of an advanced action is formatting or initializing an FSE medium.
