Abstract: A method for generating a graphical overlay indicating storage usage for a graphical representation of an information handling system includes determining a first storage capacity of a first hardware component of a second information handling system, determining a first storage usage of the first hardware component, generating a first graphical overlay for a first graphical representation of a physical configuration of the first information handling system based on the first storage capacity of the first hardware component and the first storage usage of the first hardware component, wherein the first graphical overlay comprises a first indication of the first storage usage of the first hardware component, and displaying the first graphical overlay and the first graphical representation.

Abstract: A method for generating a graphical overlay indicating component characteristics for a graphical representation of an information handling system includes determining one or more component characteristics of one or more hardware components of a second information handling system, generating a first graphical overlay for a first graphical representation of a physical configuration of the one or more hardware components based on the one or more component characteristics, determining a selected view, and displaying the first graphical overlay and the first graphical representation based on the determination of the selected view.

Abstract: A port configuration replication system includes a first networking device including a first port, and a second networking device including a second port. A management device communicates with the first networking device to provide a first networking device Graphical User Interface (GUI) that displays port configuration details for the first port. The management device then copies the port configuration details, and analyzes the port configuration details to identify port configuration replication information. The management device then communicates with the second networking device to display a second networking device GUI that provides for the configuration of the second port, and provides the port configuration replication information in the second networking device GUI in order to provide for the configuration of the second port.

Abstract: A multi-port configuration system includes a network switch including a plurality of ports and a user device that is configured to couple to the network switch. Each of the plurality of ports is configured to operate in at least one of a plurality of modes. A congruent graphical representation of the network switch is displayed on the user device, and a selection of a group of ports of the plurality of ports is received. Based on the received selection of the group of ports, available configuration settings for the group of ports are displayed on the user device. A configuration settings selection, selected from the available configuration settings, for configuring the group of ports is received. The configuration settings selection is provided to the network switch to configure the group of ports.

Abstract: A system for creating or modifying a template is disclosed that includes a plurality of application controls configured to allow a user to modify one or more application parameters for an application associated with each application control. A plurality of virtual machine controls are configured to allow a user to modify one or virtual machine parameters for a virtual machine associated with each virtual machine control and to allow a user to associate each virtual machine control with one or more application control. The application controls are configured to allow a user to associate each application control with one or more virtual machine control.
