Product tree

For the MainView product that is associated with the selected context, the Product tree displays standard nodes and the product node.

The Product tree is shown in the following figure:

This topic contains the following topics:

PLEX node

The PLEX node displays the Plex Map. The Plex Map shows the active MainView products, the systems on which they are active (each represented by a CAS), and the connections between them.

You can display the Plex Map by clicking the PLEX node icon .

Alerts node

The Alerts node displays a view of exception messages indicating that threshold conditions have been met.

Double-click the Alerts icon  to display alerts from all systems in the view frame, as shown in the following figure:

A turquoise column heading (such as Alert Text) indicates that hyperlinks are defined for the fields in the column. Double-clicking a field in the column activates the corresponding hyperlink. The target view is displayed in the view frame.

3270 node

The 3270 node displays the 3270 emulator window.

Some views contain hyperlinks to ISPF-only views. When you activate a hyperlink, the emulator window is automatically invoked to provide access to those views. You can open the emulator window manually by double-clicking the 3270  icon.

You can display the keyboard map for the 3270 emulator by clicking the Properties  button in the emulator window and selecting the Keyboard Map tab of the dialog. The key assignments are not modifiable.

Product node

The Product node displays the Product tree.

After you set a context, the Product tree expands to display the MainView product for which that context is valid. You can display the Product tree by double-clicking the Product node icon .

For each product code shown in the Product tree, Following table shows the corresponding product or component name. The Product tree displays only the products that are available to the user.

Expanding a product node displays the EZExplorer node and view folder nodes.

You can use the view folders listed beneath the EZExplorer node to list the views by name. For example, the DMON folder contains device views sorted by view name. If you do not know which view displays the information that you want, you can find it by double-clicking the EZExplorer node. The node contains folders of views grouped by functionality. The views are identified by a description (such as Cache Overview), with the view name in parentheses, rather than view names. For example, the Devices folder lists some key device activity views.

You can open a view by double-clicking its icon, or by right-clicking the icon and selecting Open view. You can also right-click and select:

• Help to display information about the view

• Open with parameters to pass parameters with the view request

• Open chart to open a chart for the view without opening the backing view
