Viewing diagrams

In addition to monitoring the IBM® storage systems through a table and an information pane (as described in the previous sections), you can view any information object in a diagram.

The diagram shows a graphic representation of the selected object, as well as its relationship with other objects. This viewing option helps you obtain a clear picture of the object condition and its influence on other objects in real time.

To display a diagram for a selected object on the table, right-click the object, and then select Open > Diagram View from the pop-up menu.
