The display of data on a collection page (a page that lists
collections of data or resources in a table) can be customized through
administrative console preferences. Preferences are set on a user
level, and typically must be set separately for each area of the administrative
console.
About this task
You can set the following display preferences for collection
pages:
- Maximum rows: Specifies the maximum number
of rows that are displayed when the collection is large. If there
are more rows than the specified maximum, they are displayed on subsequent
pages. The default value is 20.
- Retain filter criteria: Specifies whether
the last search criteria entered in the filter function is retained.
If this is enabled, the console collection pages initially use the
retained filter criteria to display the data in the table following
the preferences. See Setting administrative console filters for more information.
- Max result set size: Specifies the maximum
number of resources that a search can return. The default value is
500.
- Max column width: Specifies the maximum
number of characters viewable in a collection column. The default
value is 18.
Perform the following steps to set display
preferences for a collection page.
Procedure
- From any collection page, click Preferences.
The page expands to display the preference fields.
- Modify the values for the Maximum rows, Retain
filter criteria, Max result set size,
and Maximum column width fields as desired.
- Click Apply.
The
collection table is refreshed to display according to the values you
specified.
