Asset Attributes of an Element

IMPORTANT:

Depending on your license, Chargeback Manager may not be available. See the

"List of Features" to determine if you have access to Chargeback Manager. The "List of Features" is

accessible from the Documentation Center (Help > Documentation Center in Storage Essentials).

Access asset information for an element by doing the following:

Clicking an element (except for a file server) in Application Viewer, and then clicking the Asset
Management

tab.

Double-clicking an element in Capacity Manager, Performance Manager or System Manager,

and then clicking the Asset Management tab.

Clicking a discovered host in Backup Manager and then clicking Chargeback in the lower-left

corner.

Clicking an element in Chargeback.

Chargeback Manager provides a handy way for you to keep track of your asset information for an

element. You can easily store warranty and licensing information, as well as contact information for

the element. For example, assume a switch on the network is having some problems, and you want

to contact the person in charge of that switch. You can use the element's asset record to not only find

the contact information for that switch, but also the location of that switch.
The Asset Management tab displays general asset information about an element. It also provides

access to other screens that provide additional asset information, such as staff, geographic,

licensing, and warranty information. You can access these other screens by expanding the Asset

Record node and clicking one of its children, as shown in the following figure. To learn more about

these other screens, see the following topics:
