Using Resource Instances

5-22 Active System Manager User Guide, Release 7.1

Building Resource Instances

You can build a resource instance by copying an existing resource instance, importing one, or creating a

new one. This section describes some of the guidelines you should follow:

• Analyze—Identify what interfaces, other components, properties, and attributes does the resource

instance have. Compile the information into a spreadsheet for reference.

• Copy and Modify—Find the most similar resource instance of that type that already resides in the

Active System Manager inventory and use it as a starting point. Copy that resource instance and make

the changes necessary to the properties and interfaces to match your target resource type.

• Create a New Resource Instance—If copying or importing an existing resource instance is not

practical, you can create a new resource instance within the Active System Manager software.

This section describes how to build a resource instance via the following methods:

• Creating Resource Instances

• Importing Resource Instances

• Copying Resource Instances

• Updating Multiple Resource Instances at Once

Creating Resource Instances

You can use the Inventory perspective to create a new resource instance. You add each of the needed

element types (interfaces, power supplies, console, and so on) and each of the appropriate attributes to your

new resource.

To create a new resource instance, perform the following steps:

1. Select a method to open the New Resource Instance dialog box (see Figure 5-16):

• On the Active System Manager menu bar, click File > New > Resource Instance.

• In the Resource Instances view, right-click any resource type, and select New Resource Instance.

• On the Active System Manager toolbar, click New > Resource Instance.
