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.
Why and when to perform 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:
Steps for this task
- 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.
What to do next
You can also set global administrative console preferences, such
as whether the workspace is automatically refreshed and which scope to use
by default. To access the Preferences page in the administrative console,
click
System administration > Console settings > Preferences.
See the WebSphere Application Server Information Center for documentation
on setting these preferences.
