Adding objects to create a static view node
To create a static view node, you need to add objects manually to the view node. Only a Security Administrator or an Administrator can add objects to a view.
To add objects to create a static view node
- Log on to the OpsCenter console as a Security Administrator or an Administrator.
- In the OpsCenter console, click Settings > Views.
- From the list of views, select the view to which you want to add objects.
- Click Manage Nodes and Objects.
- On the view tree, select the view name or a view node to which you want to add an object.
- In the right-hand pane, select the Objects not in selected view tab. The available objects list varies depending on the view type.
For example: If the view is of type Client, only client hosts are available on the Objects not in selected view tab for selection.
The Objects not in selected view tab shows all host objects that are not a part of the selected view or view node.
You can filter the objects that are not in the selected view with the help of default filters. Or you can create new filters and apply them to view the required objects on the tab.
- Select the check boxes in front of the view objects that you want to add to the selected view or view node.
- Click Add to Node.
The added view objects are removed from the Objects not in selected view tab and appear on the Objects on Node tab.
Note:
If the selected view or the view node is dynamic, the Add to Node option is not available. You cannot add or remove the objects to it manually. Nodes cannot be a static and a dynamic simultaneously. it can either be a static (add and remove objects manually) or a dynamic (associate filter query) node.
