Displayed platforms options

By default, the SA Client will display the operating systems that are supported according to the SA Support and Compatibility Matrix.

To change the list of operating systems that are displayed in the By type view of the SA Library:

  1. In the SA Client, select the Tools > Options menu item.
    This displays the Set Options window.
  2. In the View pane, select Displayed Platforms.
    This displays the operating systems tree that is visible in the By type view of the SA Library.

The following sections describe how the Displayed Platforms settings are used and how to set them.

  • In the Displayed Platforms pane, an operating system family tree is displayed. Check or uncheck the operating systems in the By type view of the SA Library. The list also includes operating systems that are no longer supported (such as AIX 5.3).
  • Show Unsupported button – all operating systems that were supported in SA and are no longer supported will be displayed.
  • Restore Defaults button – the list of operating systems that are displayed in the SA Library is restored to the default list of supported operating systems found in the SA Support and Compatibility Matrix.
