Installation


Console

IntroductionThe appliance has a serial port for console access, as described in the install guide. This port canbe used to: Begin the initial installation, before network interfaces have been configured. Administer the appliance from the CLI. Recover from administration configuration errors which have disabled the network

interfaces.

Initial InstallationWhen the appliance is first powered on, the text similar to the following will be shown on theconsole:

BrowserUser Interface (BUI)The browser user interface is a graphical tool for administration of the appliance. The BUIprovides an intuitive environment for administration tasks, visualizing concepts, and analyzingperformance data.

CommandLine Interface (CLI)The command line interface has been designed tomirror the capabilities of the BUI, while alsoproviding a powerful scripting environment for performing repetitive tasks. CLI - usage and scripting

Browsers

SupportedBrowsersThe focus is to support the current leading browsers. Use a tier 1 browser for best results,however effort is made to keep tier 2 functional. Tier 3 is not supported.

Tier 1The BUI software is designed to be fully featured and functional on tier 1 browsers. The tier 1supported browsers are: Firefox 2.x and 3.x Internet Explorer 7 Safari 3.1 or later WebKit 525.13 or later

Tier 2UI elementsmay be cosmetically imperfect in tier 2 browsers, and some functionality may notbe available - although it is currently believed that all necessary features work correctly. Awarningmessage will be displayed during login as a reminder that this is a tier 2 browser. Thesebrowsers are: Mozilla 1.7 on Solaris 10 Opera 9

Browsers


Tier 3These browsers are known to have issues, and login will not complete. These include:

Internet Explorer 6 and earlier

OverviewThe browser user interface (BUI) is a graphical front to the appliancemanagement back end.While the command line is an incredibly efficient and powerful tool for scripting repetitiveadministrative tasks, the BUI provides an uncluttered environment for visualizing systembehavior and identifying performance issues.

MastheadThemasthead contains several interface elements for navigation and notification, as well asprimary functionality. At left, from top to bottom, are the Sun logo, a hardwaremodel badge,and hardware power off and restart buttons. Across the right, again from top to bottom: loginidentification, logout, help, main navigation, and subnavigation.

Main navigation changes the view between the fivemain areas of the BUI: Configuration,Maintenance, Shares, Status, and Analytics. As you navigate between these views, thesubnavigation will update to show the available content within each area.

Themasthead also displays system alerts as they are triggered. If multiple alerts are triggeredsequentially, only themost recent is shown, however a short list of recent alerts is found in theDashboard view, and a full log is available inMaintenance: Logs.

If you provide a session annotation, it is shown beneath your login ID and logout control.Clicking on this text allows you to change your session annotation for subsequentadministrative actions without logging out. Formore on session annotations, seeConfiguration: Users.

Title BarBelow themasthead onmany pages is the title bar, which provides orientation, as well as localnavigation and functions that vary depending on the current view. In the example below, thetitle bar contains the following interface elements: at left are the side panel title, object name,back button, service control and uptime status; at right are local navigation and propertycontrols.

MainWindow


Sidepanel andMenu titlesThis interface component reveals a side panel when clicked to allow for quick navigation amongadjacent Service and Project views. The side panel can be opened and closedmanually byclicking the title or reveal arrow; the side panel will remain open until the same action isperformed.

Side panels contain additional information and basic functionality: in the Shares view, you canadd or delete projects, show all projects in themain content area, and page through the listwhen it exceeds the vertical space; in Services, you can view the name and current status of eachservice. Below the Services side panel title is a link to an overview of all services.

In the Shares view, the list of projects found within the the side panel performs an additionalfunction, in that it provides drag targets formoving shares between projects. Dragging a shareinto another project will change its properties if they are set to be inherited from its parentproject. Formore on property inheritance, see Concepts.

A similar menu is found in the Analytics view that enables you to jump between openworksheets. See Analytics: OpenWorksheets formore information about working with theAnalytics interface.

ObjectNameIn the Services view, this element is comprised of the status icon and service name. Below eachService name are controls for restarting or deactivating the service, and information aboutwhen its active state was changed.

MainWindow

Chapter 3 User Interface 51

Anavigation breadcrumb is shown in the Shares view, following the format of Project > Share.In this view, you can rename the current object by clicking on the rename icon ( ), or if youare viewing a Share, you can click on the Project name at left to navigate to its parent.

Local Navigation andButtonsThese text links at top right of the title bar change the view for the current object. In the exampleabove, the IdentityMapping service has three local navigation options, the first of which isactive. Below its local navigation are buttons for committing or reverting any changesmade toIdentityMapping properties.

PropertiesConfiguring the system frequently calls formaking adjustments to a group of settings. Theseproperty sets are grouped under descriptive headers, with labels to the left, and controls to theright. Most controls use standard web form inputs, however there are a few key exceptionsworth noting:

When setting permissions, the RWX boxes are clickable targets. Clicking on the accessgroup label (User, Group, Other) toggles all permissions for that label on and off.

When editing share properties, the "Inherit from project" checkbox toggles the ability tomake changes, as when this input is checked, the properties are controlled at the projectlevel. Formore on projects and shares, see Shares: Conc
