15.0 Customizing the Cloud Manager Console Interface

Roles that Can Perform This Task: Cloud Administrator

The Cloud Manager console has two interface settings that you can customize: Currency and Workload Dialog. Currency determines the display symbol that is used in Cloud Manager currency fields. Workload Dialog determines which tabs (Windows Settings, Windows Licensing, Linux Settings, and Networks) are displayed when creating and managing business service workloads.

On the main navigation bar, click Configuration, then click the User Interface tab.
Under Currency, select the currency symbol you want to use.

This setting affects only the display symbol. It does not affect the format of the currency fields. All fields are formatted as 00.00 regardless of the currency symbol. In addition, changing the currency symbol does not perform any currency conversion on existing costs (workloads, workload templates, resources, and so on). For example, if you change from United States Dollar (USD) to Euro (EUR), $50.00 simply becomes €50.00.

Any users who log in after the change see the new currency symbol. For you to see the change, you must log out and then log in again.
Under Workload Dialog, select the workload tabs you want hidden.

A workload contains Windows Settings, > Windows Licensing, Linux Settings, and Networks tabs that must be configured when requesting a business service. By default, these are displayed so that the user can fill in the required information.

If you don’t want to require the user to provide this information, you can hide any or all of the tabs. The Build Administrator or a Cloud Administrator must then provide the information when completing the pre-build configuration task for the requested business service.

All organizations inherit this setting; however, you can override the inherited setting at each organization.
Under Workload Dialog, specify whether the entering the virtual machine name is to be mandatory for pre-configuration.
Click OK to save your change.
