The Oracle System Assistant System user interface (UI) is divided into three sections, the left side Task pane, the center Main pane, and the Help and Exit pane, which is located at the bottom of the UI.
Oracle System Assistant is organized by tasks. The eight task buttons are located on the left side of the interface in the Task pane.
Clicking a task button populates the center Main pane. Some tasks contain tabs that allow you to access additional task screens. For example, the following figure shows the organization of the Oracle System Assistant functions and the various sub-tabs and tasks.
The Help and Exit pane contains buttons that allow you to access the server documentation that resides on the internal Oracle System Assistant USB drive and the context-sensitive help. The Exit button is also located in this pane.
Clicking the Product Documentation button allows you to access the server documentation that resides on the Oracle System Assistant USB drive.
Clicking the Help button allows you to access Oracle System Assistant's context sensitive help.
Clicking the Exit button provides the option to exit the Oracle System Assistant interface and leave the server in shutdown (standby power) mode, or you can select the option to exit interface and reboot the server.
The System Information, System Overview screen is the Oracle System Assistant home screen. The home screen is the first screen that appears when you launch Oracle System Assistant, and it provides an overview of important server hardware identifier information and server system firmware versions.
