This section has undergone many changes in the latest releases of GigaSpaces and might not be accurate. It will be fully updated soon.
Overview
The Space Browser tab allows you to view and configure two main components in GigaSpaces – space and cluster.
The main Spaces node () displays the Space Network view – a table listing all spaces in the network, and different details regarding those spaces.
The Spaces node includes:
Space container nodes () that hold spaces (). Container nodes allow you to manage space containers – shutting down the container, creating a space under it, and more.
Space nodes () allow you to manage spaces – starting or stopping, destroying, cleaning the space, and more. Each space node includes different views under it, that allow you to manage it further. See screenshot...
The main Clusters node () includes:
Cluster nodes () that allow you to manage the cluster – stop, start, restart, clean the cluster, and more.
Cluster group nodes () hold the cluster members (). Clicking a cluster member displays a graphic representation of the cluster, and tables showing details regarding replication, failover, load-balancing, and classes. See screenshot...
Object Inspector — Using the selected object's UID, the Object Inspector takes the object itself from the space and displays its class fields, allowing you to drill down into object arrays.
Query View - GigaSpaces Browser — Used to query the space using SQL statements and view the resulting data set in tabular format.
Transactions View - GigaSpaces Browser — The Transactions view allows you to view all of the trasactions that are currently taking place in the selected space.
GigaSpaces Browser Menus and Buttons — Using the File menu, Container menu, Space menu, Cluster menu, Windows menu, Help menu, button toolbar, and address bar.
