Using the Monitor
The monitor provides four overviews that follow each other in sequence:
- Areas
- Area instances
- Versions
- Locks
Double-clicking a row in the current overview takes the user to the next overview, for example from the overview of area instances to the list of versions of this area instance. From the instance overview, the list of locks can be displayed on a parallel tab page.
In the list of areas, area instances, and area instance versions, a view can be selected that groups the data in the display. The following views are available:
- Overview (displays the most important data)
- Locks (lock statistics)
- Users (who created/modified the area)
- Control (memory usage and so on)
- All columns
