Figure 11-3 File System Manager Property Book

• Mount Point - Specifies the name of the mount point that you are managing in the property book. In Figure 11-3 the object is the /export mount point.

• Type - Specifies the type of the mount point.

• Property Browser - Functions much the same way as the Storage Manager Load Context Property Browser. It lists all the chapters and subchapters (if any) for the selected directory, mount point, or file system.

  Double-clicking on a chapter expands the chapter in the Property Viewer and displays the subchapters (if any) or the object properties. Double-clicking on a subchapter expands that subchapter in the Property Viewer.

• Chapter - Contains a common set of properties for the object that you can view or modify.

• The + and - Buttons - The buttons that appear below the Property Browser perform an expand all (+) or collapse all (-) function on the chapters in the Property Viewer. This is a quick way of viewing all chapter properties or only the chapter names.

  The buttons that appear next to chapter names in property books also perform an expand all or collapse all function, but only on the selected chapter.

• Property Viewer - Enables you to expand and collapse the contents of chapters. You can expand a chapter down to its object properties, enabling you to view or modify the property for the object.

Chapter Properties - Specifies the properties that you can view or modify for the object. There can be one or more properties in a chapter.
