When applying Configuration Templates, you first assign a subset of templates to a Server Batch. Then, for each server within that Server Batch you can choose one those templates to apply to that server.
To add a set of Configuration Templates to a Server Batch:
-
If you haven't already done so, add the configuration as a JSON template in the Configuration Templates tab. (See Adding a Configuration Template.)
Click Dashboard on the header bar, then click the server batch to which you want to assign the configuration template.
-
Click the Add button (the
plus
symbol), then click Add Customization. In the Configuration Templates section, select the templates that you want to assign to the Server Batch. You can select multiple templates, though each individual server can only use one of them.
When you're done, click Finish.
To assign a Configuration Template to a Server:
In the Dashboard page, click the name of the Server Batch (in the Name column).
A list of the servers in that batch appears. The Configuration Status column lists the status of the server's configuration. If no Configuration Template is assigned to a server yet, the Configuration Status is listed as No Configuration Template.
Under the Configuration Status column, click the current status of the server (either Compliant, Noncompliant, or No Configuration Template).
In the window that appears, select the Confguration Template that you want to assign to the Server.
You can choose from any template assigned to the Server Batch. If you can't find the template you want, you'll need to add it to the Server Batch first.
When you're done, click Update.
