Solaris Management Console Documentation

The main source of documentation for using the console and its tools is the online help system. There are two forms of online help: context-sensitive help and expanded help topics.

• Context-sensitive help responds to your use of the console tools.

  Clicking the cursor on tabs, entry fields, radio buttons, and so forth, causes the appropriate help to appear in the Information pane. You can close, or reopen the Information pane by clicking the question mark button on dialog boxes and wizards.

• Expanded help topics are available from the Help menu or by clicking cross reference links in some context-sensitive help.

  These topics appear in a separate viewer and contain more in-depth information than is provided by the context help. Topics include overviews of each tool, explanations of how each tool works, files used by a specific tool, and troubleshooting.

For a brief overview of each tool, refer to Table 2–1.
