Categorizing Objects

After you configure the categorization model and configure the necessary options, you can proceed to categorizing virtual infrastructure objects.

To view categorization values assigned to virtual infrastructure objects, open the Workspace tab. The Workspace view displays all discovered VMs, hosts, clusters and storage objects in the virtual infrastructure. Every virtual infrastructure object is described with a certain set of properties. For example, VMs are described with the following properties: name, path, number of vCPUs, memory and storage resources allocated to it, guest OS, and VM categorization data.

The Workspace view is a place where you can manually categorize VMs, hosts, clusters and storage objects.
