Actions
The Actions area provides:
• Commission— Commissions the object manually. You can commission the
object only if the object is in a decommissioned state. Clicking this button
forces a subchassis discovery to be executed, and propagates the
commissioned status to all subobjects.
• Decommission—Decommissions the object manually and propagates the
decommissioned status to all subobjects. In the decommissioned state, the
properties of the object are not monitored. As a result, data displayed in the
configuration window may not be current.
