About the View pane
The View pane is a key navigation and configuration tool in OpsCenter. This pane lets you select the views to control the scope of your console views.
Using OpsCenter views, you can view NetBackup information for your entire management domain (with the ALL PRIMARY SERVERS view), a specific view type, an individual server, or NetBackup appliances.
A Security Administrator or an Administrator can create views from Settings > Views or by using the OpsCenter View Builder. For example, an admin can create a view named Geography to display details about primary servers in a particular region, such as Europe. An admin can also create client or policy views.
More information about how to create views from Settings > Views is available.
See the OpsCenter View Builder Help for more information about creating views using OpsCenter View Builder.
The View pane has the following features:
It is available in any OpsCenter view where you can change the view.
It uses unique icons and colors to convey operational states.
For example, an icon with a red-dashed-circle represents a managed server that is Not Connected. Similarly, a disabled primary server is shown as a gray-colored icon.
It lets you access and change the views that you monitor or manage.
As you navigate within the OpsCenter console, your view selection applies for any subsequent screens until you select a different view.
The View pane is one method that you can use to determine the scope of information that you view.
Figure: View pane description shows a sample View pane in which ALL PRIMARY SERVERS view is selected.
