Rediscover Shortcut Menu Item
Rediscover is supported as an action on all system and some cluster objects. For most objects,
Rediscover is available only in the shortcut menu.
Rediscover causes OSM to refresh and reanalyze the object and all subcomponents. Refresh refers to
OSM updating the attribute values displayed in the OSM Service Connection interface. Reanalyze
refers to the running of OSM incident analysis, which checks EMS event messages and creates alarms
in OSM if certain conditions exist.
Using the Physical View
The Physical view is displayed in the view pane of the Management window. You can display the
Physical view of either:
A ServerNet Cluster●

When you select any resource in the Physical view, its attributes, alarms (if any), and actions are
displayed in the details pane.
If the status of a resource is abnormal, a red or yellow triangle appears over it. For more information,
see Interpreting Icons and Color. If an alarm is outstanding for the selected resource, a bell icon
appears on the Alarms tab in the details pane when you select the resource. For more information, see
Viewing Alarms for a Selected Resource.
