Product Manager Application The Product Manager application works in conjunction with the HP EFC Manager application, and is a Java-based GUI for managing and monitoring multiple directors. The application operates locally on the HP EFC Server, or through a network connection from a remote PC or workstation. Hardware View Click a product icon at the right panel of the Product View (Figure 8) to open the Product Manager application for that managed product. When the application opens, the default display is the Hardware View (Figure 11). An status table appears at the top of the window, a graphical representation of director hardware (front and rear) appears at the right panel of the window, and a navigation control panel with a series of icons appears at the left side of the window. The graphical representation of the director emulates the hardware configuration and operational status of the corresponding real director. For example, if the director is fully redundant and fully populated, this configuration is reflected in the Hardware View. Colored symbols appear on the graphical field-replaceable units (FRUs) to represent failed or degraded status. The colors and shapes are consistent with status displays on other windows in the HP EFC Manager and Fabric Manager applications. The light-emitting diodes (LEDs) also highlight to emulate real LED operation. The navigation control panel at the left side of the Hardware View provides View, Configure, Logs, Maintenance, Help, and Close icons (with associated pop-up menus) that allow users to perform director-specific tasks. 42 Software Overview

Software Overview
The date and time the remote user established a connection to the HP EFC Manager
application.
The navigation control panel at the left side of the Fabric View provides the same
administrative, operations, and maintenance task icons (with associated pop-up menus)
provided by the Product View.
An alert panel at the bottom of the navigation control panel displays a colored icon (green
circle, yellow triangle, red diamond with yellow background, or grey square) that indicates
the most degraded or critical status of any product.
Product Manager Application
The Product Manager application works in conjunction with the HP EFC Manager
application, and is a Java-based GUI for managing and monitoring multiple directors. The
application operates locally on the HP EFC Server, or through a network connection from a
remote PC or workstation.
Hardware View
Click a product icon at the right panel of the Product View (Figure 8) to open the Product
Manager application for that managed product. When the application opens, the default
display is the Hardware View (Figure 11).
An status table appears at the top of the window, a graphical representation of director
hardware (front and rear) appears at the right panel of the window, and a navigation
control panel with a series of icons appears at the left side of the window.
The graphical representation of the director emulates the hardware configuration and
operational status of the corresponding real director. For example, if the director is fully
redundant and fully populated, this configuration is reflected in the Hardware View.
Colored symbols appear on the graphical field-replaceable units (FRUs) to represent failed
or degraded status. The colors and shapes are consistent with status displays on other
windows in the HP EFC Manager and Fabric Manager applications. The light-emitting
diodes (LEDs) also highlight to emulate real LED operation.
The navigation control panel at the left side of the Hardware View provides View,
Configure, Logs, Maintenance, Help, and Close icons (with associated pop-up menus) that
allow users to perform director-specific tasks.
