Exiting Performance View
To exit a Performance View session, open the File menu and select Exit. The current
fabric view is automatically saved to your Default Performance View File upon exit,
if you have defined an encryption key. The key is encrypted and saved with your
Default Performance View File. A Performance View file contains the set of fabrics
that have been added and the graphs that have been opened during a Performance
View session. If you have not yet defined an encryption key, the Save Default
Performance View File dialog (
FIGURE 6-12) prompts you to save the current view file
as the default performance view file. Refer to “Changing the Default Performance
View File Encryption Key” on page 194 for information about defining and changing
this encryption key.
In the Save Default Performance File dialog, enter an encryption key in the Default
File Encryption Key field. Re-enter the encryption key in the Re-enter Encryption
Key to Confirm field. Click the OK button to save the current set of fabrics to the
Default Performance View File in the working directory.
To prevent Performance View from prompting you to save the Default Performance
View File between sessions, set the Auto Load and Save Graphing Environment
setting to Enable (default). Refer to “Setting Performance View Preferences” on
page 195 for more information.
FIGURE 6-12 Save Default Performance View File Dialog
In your next Performance View session, the Load Default View File dialog
(
FIGURE 6-13) prompts you to load the Default Performance View File and to specify
its encryption key, if there is one. In the Default File Encryption Key field, enter the
encryption key and click the Load View File button. If you do not want to load the
Default Performance View File, click the Continue Without Loading button to open
the Performance View with no fabric displayed.
