for a system, you can select Tools View Capacity Advisor Data to go to the Capacity
Advisor Profile Viewer to view or modify historical profile data for that system.
NOTE:
Collapsing a selected subcompartment's parent in the compartment hierarchy
and then expanding it deselects the subcompartment. To perform actions on that
subcompartment, you must again select the check box for the subcompartment.
Unlicensed systems do not appear in compartments.
The system name is displayed for the compartment. In the example, the name indicates
a Virtual Connect domain, with a subcompartment showing an enclosure. Each
compartment and subcompartment are color coded to indicate its type, such as an
enclosure. For information about what these colors represent, see
