You can view all of an asset's
associated information in the View Asset dialog box. In addition to viewing general
information about an asset, you can use the View Asset dialog box to view the following
types of detailed information associated with the asset:
- Notes. When a Tivoli Asset Management user adds
an asset or edits an asset, he or she can create a set of
notes about the asset. These free-form text notes can provide additional details about the
asset that do not "fit" in any of the boxes provided by the Add Asset or Edit
Asset dialog boxes.
- Change information. In Tivoli
Change Management, when a user creates a change, he or she can specify modifications
to one or more asset records to be applied when the change is marked complete. If you use
Tivoli Asset Management with Tivoli Change Management, you can view any changes that are
associated with an asset.
- Problem information. In Tivoli
Problem Management, when a user creates a problem, he or she can associate an asset
with the problem. If you use Tivoli Asset Management with Tivoli Problem Management, you
can view any problems that are associated with the asset.
