Click each menu button to obtain a set of related objects that you can configure. The available toolbar buttons and menu items in the Netcool/OMNIbus Administrator window change depending on your selection.

Working with objects

When working with an object, several ways are available for you to select an option: the menu bar, the toolbar, and a pop-up menu. For example, if you want to create a user, you must first select the User menu button and then click Users to obtain the Users pane. You can then perform any of the following actions to create the user:
  • Click Item > Add User.
  • From the toolbar, click Add User.
  • From the Users pane, right-click and then click Add User from the pop-up menu.

    If you are editing or deleting objects, you can perform an equivalent set of actions. If you are editing objects, you can additionally double-click the object to open the relevant window for editing.

Tip: You can also use SQL commands to interact with, and configure, the ObjectServer.
