Viewing the list of clusters
Clusters displays all existing clusters. The system administrator can view the entire list, or a subset of the list. Choose Clusters to view the entire list. The system administrator can filter the cluster list to display only the following cluster subsets:
*Clusters where the cluster ID contains a specified search string
*Clusters that are starred
The following sections describe how to filter the cluster list.
Filtering the list of clusters using a search string
The system administrator can filter the cluster list to display only clusters containing a specified search string in the cluster ID. In Search, type the first letter or letters of a cluster ID to display the clusters for which the name starts with the specified letter or letters. Search is not case-sensitive.
System Console supports using an asterisk (*) in a search string as a wildcard character. The asterisk represents zero or more characters, excluding spaces and punctuation.
How to filter the list of clusters using a search string
Using the cluster list shown in Figure 2‑58 as an example, type *est* in Search to find all cluster IDs that contain this string. System Console automatically filters the list and displays the results, as shown in Figure 2‑59.

How to refresh the list of clusters
Refresh the list of clusters by left-clicking Actions and choosing Refresh items, as shown in Figure 2‑60:

Alternatively, choose the x icon in the search text box.
Filtering non-starred clusters
The system administrator can filter the cluster list to show only starred clusters. A starred cluster appears with a filled-in star next to the cluster ID. A starred cluster appears in the list of clusters on Monitoring—Weekly Activity Report.
How to filter non-starred clusters
1 Choose Clusters, as shown in Figure 2‑61.
