You can invoke equivalent context menus for an object from the Cluster Admin view, from the clusterwide table, or from any RMS graph containing that object.
By default, each log file is displayed in a separate tab in the right pane.

To view any tab in a separate window, click the detach control button. The detach button is located between the help and close control buttons in the upper-right corner of the view.

Point
While in detached mode, the view's close button and the standard window close button serve the same purpose: they both close the detached window.
In attached mode, the tabbed view's close button closes only the visible tab. All other tabs remain open.
