User Interface Overview
The AlterPath Manager user interface provides you with four main menu options
Note: With browsers other than Internet Explorer, there are limitations with multiple users accessing the AlterPath Manager via the Web Management Interface on a single workstation. If you plan to have more than one user simultaneously open APM Web access sessions from a single workstation, you should use Internet Explorer.:
The Alarms list form is the first form that you see (or the default form) when you log in. Use this form to view alarms, update the status of an alarm or close an alarm after resolving it
Consoles / Devices
(select “DEVICE” from the “Filter by” pull-down selector)
List form to view a list of devices assigned to you. From the list, click on the device you wish to access.
For IPMI and Blade Module users, the Consoles List form provides access to the IPMI as a device as well as the chassis blades and switches.
Consoles / Devices
(select “CONSOLE” from the “Filter by” pull-down selector)
List form to view a list of consoles assigned to you. From the list, click on the console you wish to access.
For IPMI and Blade Module users, the Consoles List form provides access to the IPMI SOL as well as the chassis blades and switches.
Use the Logs form to view the “Access” logs, “Events” logs, and “Data Buffer” logs for a particular console or device.
The User’s Profile form displays the profile of only the user currently logged in. Use the User Profile to view or modify your own user information, view your own security rule, or change select a new color scheme for your WMI.
To Access the APM Web Application
To open the AlterPath Manager web application, perform the following steps:
1.
https://<nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn>
Where: nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the IP address provided to you by your AlterPath Manager administrator.
The IP address works for both encrypted (https) and non-encrypted (http) versions. Cyclades recommends that you use the encrypted version.
Note: See “To Disable HTTP to Use Only HTTPS” in Chapter 5 of the AlterPath Manager Installation, Configuration, and User’s Guide, for the procedure on how to configure the encrypted version.
2.
APM Login Screen
3.
Upon successful login, the Alarms List form appears.
Note: When the AlterPath Manager launches your application screens for the first time, the process will be slow. Once the screens are stored into your cache, subsequent retrieval of screens should be fast.
