To view the list of objects: 1. Open Veeam ONE Client. For details, see [Accessing Veeam ONE Components](access.md). 2. At the bottom of the inventory pane, click **Business View**. 3. In the inventory pane, select the necessary node. 4. Open the tab with the name of the object: *Virtual Machines*, *Hosts*, *Datastores*, *Clusters*, *Computers*, *Enterprise Applications*. 5. To find the necessary object by name, use the **Search** field at the top of the list. To display objects of a specific virtual infrastructure node, select the necessary node in the **Scope** field at the top of the list. 6. Click column names to sort objects by a specific parameter. [![Business View Objects](images/bv_objects.png "Business View Objects")](images/bv_objects.png){.toggle scale=50} For every object in the list, the following details are available. ### Virtual Machines - **State** — state of the VM (*powered on*, *powered off*, *suspended*) - **Name** — name of the VM - **Parent Object** — name of the parent object for the VM Click a link in this column to switch to the **Virtual Infrastructure** for the parent object. - **vCPUs** — number of virtual CPUs configured for the virtual machine - **Memory Size** — amount of memory resources allocated to the VM - **Guest OS** — guest operating system installed on the VM - **Virtual Disk Size** — size of the VM virtual disk - **Categories** — number of categories to which the VM is included Click a link in this column to see all categories and groups in which the VM is included. ### Hosts - **Name** — name of the host - **Parent Object** — name of the parent object for the host Click a link in this column to switch to the **Virtual Infrastructure** for the parent object. - **CPU Count** — number of CPU cores on the host - **CPU Speed** — frequency of CPU cores on the host - **Memory Size** — total capacity of the host - **VM Count** — number of VMs residing on the host - **Categories** — number of categories to which the host is included Click a link in this column to see all categories and groups in which the host is included. ### Datastores - **Datastores** — name of the datastore - **Parent Object** — name of the parent object for the datastore Click a link in this column to switch to the **Virtual Infrastructure** for the parent object. - **File System** — type of the file system on the datastore - **Capacity** — total capacity of the datastore - **Free Space** — free space remaining on the datastore - **VM Count** — number of VMs residing on the datastore - **Categories** — number of categories to which the datastore is included Click a link in this column to see all categories and groups in which the datastore is included. ### Clusters - **Clusters** — name of the cluster - **Parent Object** — name of the parent object for the cluster Click a link in this column to switch to the **Virtual Infrastructure** for the parent object. - **CPU Count** — number of CPU cores in the cluster - **CPU Speed** — total frequency of all CPU cores in the cluster - **Memory Size** — total size of memory available for the cluster - **Host Count** — number of hosts in the cluster - **VM Count** — number of VMs residing on the cluster - **Categories** — number of categories to which the cluster is included Click a link in this column to see all categories and groups in which the cluster is included. ### Computers - **Name** — name of the computer on which Veeam backup agent is installed - **IP Address** — IP address of the computer on which Veeam backup agent is installed - **Cluster** — name of a failover cluster added to a protection group - **Agent Type** — type of the computer OS and mode in which Veeam backup agent job runs (*Windows Server, Windows Workstation, Linux Server, Linux Workstation, Mac Server, Mac Workstation, Solaris Server* or *AIX Server*) - **Location** — location assigned to the computer in Veeam Backup & Replication - **Agent Version** — version of the Veeam backup agent - **Protection Group** — name of the protection group to which the computer is included - **Backup Server** — name of the Veeam Backup & Replication server that manages the Veeam backup agent - **Backup Job / Policy** — name of the backup job or policy assigned to the Veeam backup agent on the computer - **Last Backup State** — state of the latest job session - **Last Successful Backup** — date and time when the latest restore point was created - **Categories** — number of categories to which the computer is included Click a link in this column to see all categories and groups in which a computer is included. ### Enterprise Applications - **Name** — name of the machine on which the enterprise application plug-in is installed - **IP Address** — IP address of the machine on which the enterprise application plug-in is installed - **Platform** — enterprise application platform - **Location** — location assigned to the application in Veeam Backup & Replication - **Plug-in Version** — version of the Veeam Plug-in - **Protection Group** — name of the protection group to which the application is included - **Backup Server** — name of the Veeam Backup & Replication server that manages the Veeam Plug-in - **Backup Policy** — name of the backup job or policy assigned to the Veeam Plug-in - **Last Backup State** — state of the latest job session - **Last Successful Backup** — date and time when the latest restore point was created - **Categories** — number of categories to which the application is included Click a link in this column to see all categories and groups in which a computer is included. You can choose what columns to show or hide in the objects table: - To hide one or more columns, right-click the table header, and clear check boxes next to the corresponding data fields. - To make hidden columns visible, right-click the table header, and select check boxes next to the corresponding data fields. ## Exporting Object Details to CSV You can export categorization data to a CSV file and save it for documenting purposes: 1. Open Veeam ONE Client. For details, see [Accessing Veeam ONE Components](access.md). 2. At the bottom of the inventory pane, click **Business View**. 3. In the inventory pane, select the necessary node. 4. Open the tab with the name of the object: *Virtual Machines*, *Hosts*, *Datastores*, *Clusters*, *Computers*, *Enterprise Applications*. 5.
