Allow sizing and Left, Right or Center Justification of Column view with v9 HMC GUI

GUI Column Display of LPAR attributes needs better custom sizing and descriptions of some information needs to be improved for user readability. For example some columns such as LPAR memory might only require a few characters to display, but use much more space by default than fields that have longer character strings. Also other information fields that have extremely long names (such as IBMi and Linux OS values) would more useful if the user could right justify the column and only display enough characters to show just the information they want to see.

Recommend that all columns be configurable in size to include narrowing them down to 1 chararcter to opening them up to max length. Would want to be able to set the column view for all columns to be either right, left or centered. OR. Select justification within individual columns to be either right, left or centered.

    Hi Lloyd,

    There are some usability improvements planned for HMC GUI in upcoming releases and we will plan to address this request with those enhancements.

    Thanks.
