Overview of My Servers

The My Servers feature provides an efficient way to manage servers when your operational environment contains hundreds or thousands of servers.

When you search for servers or browse the server lists, you can add servers to My Servers (similar to a shopping cart on an e-commerce site). Using My Servers allows you to view and perform actions on selected servers.

When you use the same browser and login to the SA Web Client running in the same facility, servers stay in My Servers for one year or until you explicitly remove them. Each time that you login to the SA Web Client, you see the servers that were in My Servers the last time that you logged in.

The My Servers feature is available only on a per-user basis. You cannot log in as an SA administrator to see the servers in the My Servers area of other SA users.

Adding Servers to My Servers

Perform the following steps to add a server to My Servers:

  1. From the navigation panel, click Servers > Manage Servers. The Manage Servers page appears. Browse the list to find the servers that you want to add to the My Servers.

    Or, search for the servers that you want to add to My Servers.

    See Searching for Servers or Other Resources and Server Searching by IP Address for more information.
  2. Select the servers that you want to add to My Servers.
  3. Choose Resource > Add to My Servers from the menu above the Manage Servers list. The Add To My Servers window appears, which indicates that you added the chosen number of servers to My Servers.
  4. Click Close to close the window.
  5. Next, select the My Servers link at the top of the page. You see the selected servers added to My Servers.

You can perform the same server management tasks on servers in My Servers as on the servers in the Manage Servers list.

Removing Servers from My Servers

Perform the following steps to remove servers from My Servers:

  1. Click the My Servers link in the navigation panel of the SA Web Client. The My Servers page appears that shows the servers currently added to it.
  2. Select the servers to remove from My Servers and choose Edit > Remove from My Servers from the menu above the Server list.

The My Servers page refreshes and displays the remaining servers in My Servers.
