When you configure the racks for asset models that support it, you need to add rack objects for pieces of hardware. Then, you can assign objects and define parent-child relationships. For more information, see Assigning Objects to a Rack in Rack Configuration.
To add a rack:
-
In the Admin Utility, click the Asset Explorer Configuration link.
-
Click the Rack Configuration tab.
-
In the list at the top of the Rack Configuration tab, select an asset. The asset model for that asset must support rack configuration.
-
Expand the placeholder nodes to view the objects. Only applicable object types are listed.
-
Right-click on an object, and then click Add Rack.
-
On the Add Rack window, specify the Title, Total slots, and I/O slots fields for the rack, such as 1, 16, and 12.
-
Click OK. The new rack is listed as a child of the parent object.
-
If you want to modify the rack object, right-click on the rack to view other options, such as Rename, Delete, and Change icon.
