The page that opens under the tab includes several collapsible sections on the page where you can configure the general information and attributes of the VM host.
NOTE:Whenever you make changes to any Grid object, the write icon 
is superimposed on the object’s icon, signifying that the object has been altered. If you want to save the changes you have made, you need to click the Save button 
on the Orchestration Console toolbar.
