Common User Interface Elements in the Transporter Management Console

This section describes the user interface elements that are common across the Transporter Management Console. Figure 1 shows the Transporter Management Console.

Console Tree

The console tree is located on the left side of the console and is organized by type of action. You can choose to Connect to configure the Directory and Free/Busy Connectors or Migrate to configure and perform Directory, mail, and application migrations.

Result Pane

The result pane is located in the center of the console. This pane displays objects based on the node that is selected in the console tree. In addition, you can filter the information in the result pane.

Action Pane

The action pane is located on the right side of the console. This pane lists the actions that are available based on the object that is selected in the console tree or result pane. The action pane is an extension of the shortcut menu, which is the menu that appears when you right-click an item. However, the shortcut menu is still available.

The following table lists common action pane options.
