Working with Site Viewer

In the Site Viewer you can filter the list of panels by name or part of the name, and you can sort it by event severity. To better represent the architecture of your site, with an appropriate permission, you can rename the panels and also group them together in meaningful collections represented by a single graphic symbol. You can also select one or more panels and then operate on System Manager and Event List on the selected set to see status information and start control actions.
