Keep in mind the following:
• The name must contain 1 to 64 characters.

letter, a number (0 to 9), or one of the following symbols: dollar sign ($), caret (^), hyphen

Properties of an Oracle Instance
You can view detailed properties of an Oracle instance by doing the following:
1. Access Application Viewer by clicking Tools > Storage Essentials > Application Viewer.
2. Click the Oracle instance in Application Viewer.
3. Click the Properties tab.
The following properties are displayed:
• Custom Name - To make it easier to identify the element instance in the system, assign the
instance a Custom Name. The Custom Name also appears in Chargeback. Since all users
query the same database, this name is displayed to others using the software. As a result,
you might want to make them aware of the name. For more information adding a Custom
Name, refer to "Assigning a Custom Name" in the User Guide.
• Business Cost - The management server lets you assign a business cost to an application,
including virtual applications. This information is used in Event Manager for ranking events
from elements. Event Manager determines the rank of an event by taking into account the
business cost of the application and the severity of the event. You can sort events by rank in
Event Manager by clicking the Rank column. See the topic, "Assigning a Business Cost to an
Application" for more information.
