- Custom workspace options and guidelines
The Tivoli Enterprise Portal has over a dozen types of views that you can populate a workspace with. Over half of the views are query-based and have a number of embellishments that you can use to observe potential and existing threshold conditions and other metrics. - Tutorial: Defining a workspace
Use the tutorial to get hands on practice and experience defining a workspace. - Starting workspace administration mode
Typically, workspaces you create are saved with your user ID and no other users can see them. You can turn on administration mode so that all workspaces you edit and save while in this mode are shared with all users who log on to the same Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server. - Workspace properties
Every workspace has a name and general characteristics defined in the workspace properties. - Creating a new workspace
You can create a new workspace from any existing workspace. The new workspace is associated with the same Navigator item as the original workspace.
You cannot save a new workspace if your user ID does not
have Workspace Author Mode permission. - Saving a workspace
You must save a workspace to maintain the changes you make to the workspace properties; otherwise, the changes you have made are lost. - Editing a workspace
Use the Properties editor to change the general characteristics of a workspace and to edit the style and content of any of its views. You can delete or restore the original version of an edited workspace through the File menu. - Renaming a workspace
You can rename a workspace to better suit your environment. - Deleting or restoring a workspace
You can delete a workspace of your creation and restore the original version of a predefined workspace or one created by the administrator. - Defining links between workspaces
The Tivoli Enterprise Portal enables you to define a link from one workspace to another. Then you can quickly jump to a related workspace or a sequence of workspaces that you like to frequently review.
