Abstract: Disclosed are a method and system for grouping columns of data into different levels for subsequent multiple level operations. The method comprises the steps of providing sub-columns within a single table column, said table columns and each of the sub-columns having an associated header; and using multiple dummy tables and displaying them separately on different locations, one of the dummy tables including one or more of the associated headers. The preferred embodiment of the invention uses a tool, referred to as the Jtable class, which is used to display and edit regular two-dimensional tables of cells. The present invention is able to support multilevel headers and column spanning by using multiple tables and displaying them separately. Preferably, this is done using another tool, GridBagLayout, which is associated with Jpanel tool.

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.

Abstract: A user interface for a computer system that provides a display of a tree and corresponding table, e.g., a “treetable” display. The tree is updated based on filter and sort operations applied to the table. Tree nodes may represent storage resources of a computer system such as a storage server, logical storage resources, volumes, disks, and the like. Filtering may be based on storage resource identifier, storage resource size, copy type, copy status, copy progress, and characteristics of a copy relationship, such as an identifier of another storage resource that is a source or target resource for copying. The table is updated to display only the information associated with the child nodes that meet the filtering conditions, and their parent nodes, while omitting the information for remaining nodes. Rows of the table displaying information for multiple copy relationships associated with a node remain grouped after sorting or filtering.
