116 omconfig system or servermodule assetinfo: Editing Cost of Ownership Values
Adding Depreciation Information
Depreciation is a set of methods for computing the devaluation of your asset
over time. For example, the depreciation of a system that is expected to have
a useful life of 5 years would be 20 percent. Use the omconfig system
assetinfo info=depreciation or omconfig servermodule assetinfo info=
depreciation command to add details about how your system's depreciation is
to be computed. Table 5-3 shows the valid parameters for the command.
Example Commands for Adding Depreciation Information
To provide a value for a depreciation parameter, type a command of the form:
omconfig system assetinfo info=depreciation <name=value pair 2> or
omconfig servermodule assetinfo info=depreciation <name=value pair 2>.
For example, type:
omconfig system assetinfo info=depreciation
method=straightline
or
omconfig servermodule assetinfo info=depreciation
method=straightline
Table 5-3. omconfig system assetinfo info=depreciation/omconfig servermodule
