== VMM Administrator Console Views == The console consists of a menubar, toolbar and a number of different panels. These panels are context sensitive, in as so far as they display displaying different information depending on which ''view'' is currently selected. Views are selected using the list in the bottom left hand corner of the window. The number of views available will depend on the current configuration of the VMM 2008 environment. The full list of views consists of the following:
* '''Hosts''' - Displays information and options relating the management of managed host systems.
- ''User Roles'' - View and manage user roles to control access and permissions within the VMM infrastructure. For example, this view allows profiles to be configured to control which users have access to the Self-Service portal, and what they can do when they log into it.
- ''System Center'' - Provides access to System Center OpsMgr reports. - ''Virtualization Managers'' - Displays information on all virtual machine managers (including both VMM and VMware managers) currently being managed. * '''Reporting''' - Provides reporting options when the Operations Manager has been configured.
