A server profile template allows you to do the following tasks:
-
Manage the server hardware configuration separately from the actual server hardware.
-
Easily reapply the configuration to the server hardware if the server hardware is serviced or replaced.
-
Define the server configuration prior to the server hardware installation.
-
Capture significant portions of the server configuration in one place, greatly simplifying and hastening server configuration.
Depending on the hardware environment, you can configure many or all of the server profile settings.
Server profile templates are useful as you can:
-
Manage many server profiles with the same configuration.
-
Easily generate new server profiles from the template.
-
Control configuration changes for multiple servers at once. HPE OneView checks compliance in all the server profiles that are referenced to the template.
-
Automatically resolve the compliance issues using the Update from Template action. The server profile configuration is adjusted to match the server profile template.
