ABSTRACT:
A computer system and method provide a systems for representing resource(s) in a computing system environment by creating an object to represent a resource in the computing system environment and assigning an object identifier to the object. The object identifier includes at least a simple name of the object and a home of the object. The system displays at least one representation of the object on a graphical user interface. Each representation of the object includes the simple name of the object and, if a home condition exists for that representation of the object displayed on the graphical user interface, the representation further includes the home of the object, and if a home condition does not exist for that representation of the object, the representation of the object displayed on the graphical user interface does not include the home of the object. The graphical user interface can also provide groups that are transparent and terminal in order to allow visual arrangement of resource representations without effecting those resources.
