Abstract: A method of efficiently adjusting a timeline in a time window. An application program displays a window that includes a graphical user interface (GUI), at least a portion of time-based data, a timeline, and a slider bar. If a click and drag occurs while a cursor is over the slider bar, the application moves the slider bar and changes a position of data displayed in the window by an amount corresponding to the movement. The application increases the timeline scale if the slider bar reaches an edge of the timeline. If a click and drag occurs while the cursor is over a handle on an edge of the slider bar, the application resizes the slider bar and adjusts the timeline scale to correspond to the slider bar scale. If additional time-based data is available and is not displayed, the application displays an indicator on a corresponding edge of the timeline.

Abstract: A computer-generated user interface for setting up source-target pairs of storage resources, and representing the status of copying activities of the pairs, in a disk storage server or other storage device. The interface (500) identifies each storage resource, such as volumes, in the storage device (100, 110, 120, 130), and one or more storage resources in the same or a different storage device (100, 110, 120, 130) for which a copy relationship has been established. One or more status icons are displayed to provide information related to the copy relationship, such as whether copying is in progress, the type of copying, copying progree and the like. A task wizard interface (300, 400) enables a user to designate desired copy relationships between storage resources. The user may select indicia associated with the resources to set up the copy relationships.
