If your MediaCentral Cloud UX system is included in a multi-site environment, a downward-pointing arrow appears over the icon of any remote assets. For more information, see Working with Remote Assets.

Asset Management assets and shotlists can be temporarily “reserved.” A reserved asset or shotlist cannot be deleted nor can its essences or locations be deleted. When a reservation is applied to an Asset Management asset or shotlist, a red circle appears over the asset type icon. For more information, see Maintaining Reserved Asset Management Assets and Shotlists.

When you hover the mouse pointer over the icon, a tool-tip shows you when the reservation expires; this can be an exact date or “none.” While the reservation information is retrieved, you might see a “Fetching reservation expiry date...” message for a short time.
