Figure A-2 shows the important areas of the File System Manager's main window.
Here are some brief descriptions of the areas within File System Manager's main window:
Current Context - Specifies the server or clients on the server where you are managing file systems. You can change the current context by choosing Load from the File menu or by clicking on the Load Context icon in the tool bar.
Menu Bar - Displays the menus that enable you to perform operations in File System Manager. For detailed descriptions of the menus, see the online help.
Tool Bar - Displays icons that provide an easier way to select commonly-used operations provided by the main menu, such as mount and unmount, and the ability to launch other tools. When you move the mouse pointer over an active icon, the message area describes what operation the icon will perform. You can choose Toolbar from the View menu to turn the tool bar off or on (by default, it is turned on).
Main Browser - Displays the directory hierarchy for the current context. You can use the navigation buttons to expand or collapse the view of the directories and mount points. The browser initially displays the top-level of the file system hierarchy.
The + and - Buttons - Are three-state buttons used to expand and collapse the hierarchical structure you are viewing. The three states are:
Collapsed all (the + is displayed)
Collapsed managed objects (the +/- is displayed)
Expanded all (the - is displayed)
The +/- state means that the corresponding entry is only partially expanded or collapsed. Clicking on a button in this state will further expand the entry.
Message Area - Provides information about the main window or icon where the mouse pointer is located.
Mount Point List - Displays an entry for each mount point defined in the current context. Each entry contains the full path name of the mount point, the type of file system mounted on that mount point, whether the associated resource is currently mounted on the mount point, and the name of that resource.
Shared Resource List - Displays an entry for each shared resource (directory or mount point) defined in the current context. Each entry contains the full path name of the resource, followed by the options controlling its export.
