Move an Asset

Moving a managed device into an unmanaged Management Domain will cause the device to be effectively unmanaged. In this case SilverBack will neither poll nor monitor the device.

 

Move enables you to move assets between Management Domains, within a single SilverBack Managed Services Platform, so that discovered devices can be moved among end customer subdomains. The SilverStreak associated with the Management Domain which contains a moved asset will take over all polling requests.

You can move an asset to:

Moving to a lower Management Domain enables you to delegate ownership. Users with the proper privileges in the lower Management Domain can now make changes to the asset, since it is now editable from their accounts.
