The navigation area has categories – Dashboard, Health, Capacity, Replication, Reports, Administration, and Inventory. Within each category, you can select the name of a subject page to be displayed in the work area.

Unless the dashboard is maximized, the banner is always visible and enables you to:

  • Filter the scope of the active page of the work area (the filter control appears only on monitoring pages)
  • Open the online help.
  • Log out

The banner:

  • Shows alert notifications, which you can select to see an informational dialog window with a link to the Alerts page
  • Provides the active user, role, and access to the classic view of DDMC
NOTE The normal view loads when you enter the DDMC IP address or hostname in the browser address bar. To load the classic view, from the User profile button, click Switch to classic view. To return to normal view, reenter the IP address or hostname in the browser address bar.

Standard global controls (add, edit, delete):

  • Enable interaction with the application
  • Manage how information is displayed on pages with tables (sorting column content by ascending or descending controls and hiding or displaying columns)
