About assigning price tiers to hosts

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
You can use operating system-specific commands to find host characteristics. This includes the make and model of the host, processor type, and processor count. However, although you can discover hardware information for most hosts, you may not have all the characteristics of a host. In that case, it is called an "unknown tier".
The assign price tier feature lets you assign price tiers to an unknown host. It eliminates the need to find host characteristics manually.
You can assign a price tier to a host by selecting the server price tier, processors price tier, operating system price tier, or the Symantec Performance Value Unit (SPVU) price tier.
