DELL Version 5.3 Manuel D’Utilisation

Equipment Details | Resource Management and Reports

You can also right-click to open further Details screens about some subcomponents like Interfaces 

and Ports. These display a Reference Tree (like Widgets / Snap Panels (Reference Tree) on page 108) 

too. You can even right-click nodes in that reference tree to drill down to additional details.

Notice the breadcrumb trail at the top of the Equipment Detail panel tracks the levels through which you 

drill down. You can click a level that appears in this trail to return to a previous screen. If you click Return 
to previous

 in the upper right corner of the screen, you will return to the original screen from which you 

selected the basic equipment.

Some fields may be truncated onscreen. Workaround: hover the cursor over the truncated field so 

the text appears as a tooltip or drill down to see the detail.
Some devices populate the ports panel, but not the interfaces panel. This panel is empty for such 

devices. Interfaces may appear for Force10. Force 10 devices interfaces details can display Port 

Channels (LAGs), VLANs (SVIs) and Loopbacks.
If the Ports portlet is on the same page as the Managed Resources portlet, selecting a device in 

Managed Resources makes its ports appear in the Ports portlet. The display can also get out of sync, 

but clicking the browser’s Refresh restores the correspondence between a selected device and the 

ports displayed. To resync a port, resync the device that contains it.

The meaning of most fields that appear in details screens are self-evident. Here is a little more 

information about some of them:
Operational State—One of following possible values describing the availability of the resource. 

Disabled—Inoperable because of a fault, or resources are unavailable.
Enabled—Operable and available for use.
Active—Device is operable and currently in use with operating capacity available to support 

further services.

Busy—Operable and currently in use with no operating capacity to spare.

Administrative State—One of the following values:

Locked—Device use is prohibited.
Shutting Down—Only existing users can use the device.
Unlocked—Normal use of device is permitted.
