The primary navigation icons for HyTrust KeyControl appear in a horizontal toolbar across the top of the screen.

Actions You Can Take by Clicking the Cloud Icon
The Cloud icon enables you to download the HyTrust DataControl Policy Agent, create VM Sets, and manage the virtual machines in those VM Sets. It also lists unauthenticated VMs and enables you to authenticate them, and enables you to create KeyControl Mappings.

What the Navigation Icon Overlays Mean
The navigation icons communicate additional information about the content. The “X” over the number “2” on the Cluster Icon, for example, means that there are two servers in the cluster, and that they are in degraded mode. When adding a KeyControl node to a cluster, you will see a lightning bolt overlay that persists until the node is authenticated, at which time it becomes a green heart.
