Task

- To launch the Administration Console, select (from the application menu) .
- Expand the objects in the left pane to explore the hierarchy of resource types.
- Select a high-level resource type (a logical server, for example) in the hierarchy.
The Administration Console displays a list of resources of that type. You can use the Folder menu to create another server of the same type, or to refresh the view.
- Select various objects in the hierarchy.
Information about each selected object appears in the table in the right pane.
- In either the right or the left pane, select an object.
A dropdown arrow appears to the right of the name. If the selected object is in the right pane, the Resource menu becomes active.
- Click the dropdown arrow to display a menu of actions you can perform on that object. If the selected object is in the right pane, use the Resource menu to display the same actions.
Note: Some managed objects have no actions.
