The View (right) pane of the Console displays the result of selecting a node in the Navigation (left) pane. If the node selected is a running tool, the View pane displays the result of running the tool. See About Legacy Applications below for an exception to this.
Do the following to load a tool and display the result in the View pane.
See To Open a Server Toolbox or To Open a Local Toolbox for instructions. Depending on your Authentication Preferences setting and whether you have previously logged in to the server, you may have to log in to the server where the tool resides.
You may need to expand a toolbox, toolbox link, or folder node to see the tool. Click a parent node in the Navigation pane or double-click a parent node in the View pane to expand it.
OR
Double-click the tool in the View pane. Single-click if Web Style has been selected from the View As submenu of the View menu.
The result is displayed in the View pane, except for legacy applications, as noted below.
About Legacy Applications: A legacy application (one that is not a Solaris Management Console tool) is not displayed in the Navigation pane hierarchy. The icon for a legacy application is displayed in the View pane when the application's parent node is selected in the Navigation pane or when its parent is double-clicked in the View pane. For example, Terminal is a legacy application packaged with the Solaris Management Console; select This Computer in the Navigation pane to see the Terminal icon displayed in the View pane.
Note: When you load a legacy application by double-clicking it in the View pane, the result is not displayed in the View pane; the legacy application spawns a separate window. Note also that the Legacy Application Launcher may be displayed when you attempt to run the application. Follow the instructions in the dialog.
See To Add a Legacy Application to a Toolbox for instructions for adding a legacy application to a toolbox or folder.
