7 Hypervisor Deployment using the OpenManage Integration for VMware vCenter

3 Deployment template

The second step in the Deployment wizard is to select a deployment template. A deployment template

contains the hardware profile and a hypervisor profile to apply during deployment. A list of available

deployments templates is presented for selection. You can view, edit and select a deployment template

from the listing, or you can add a deployment template to the listing and then select it. To edit a

Deployment Template, highlight the template in the listing and use the

Edit

button. To create a

deployment template, use the

Create New

button.

3.1 Creating a deployment template

Create deployment templates by using the

Create New

button in the Deployment Template section of the

Deployment Wizard, or under the Deployment section in the left menu. A dialog box appears prompting

you for a unique name for the deployment template. An empty deployment template is created with the

new name.

TIP: Use a name for the deployment template that contains attributes related to the server and hypervisor

profile you will use, example: R610_ESX-51. You can rename the deployment template from the Edit page.

Before using the template, it must contain a hardware profile and a hypervisor profile. Use the Edit button

to create new Hardware and Hypervisor Profiles, or select an existing profile from the drop- down list and

save the changes to the deployment template.

3.2 Hardware profile

Use a hardware profile to configure hardware component settings on Dell servers during deployment. The

hardware profile gathers settings (boot order, BIOS settings, iDRAC settings and RAID configuration) from

a Dell reference server that you choose. You can either clone these settings gathered by the reference

server or customize them. The reference server is a Dell host in a vCenter or a compliant bare metal

server. You can use a hardware profile in one or more deployment templates or select a deployment

template later.

3.3 Creating a hardware profile

Create a Hardware Profile using the

Create New

button on the Deployment Template Edit page or under

the Deployment section in the left-pane navigation menu. To create a hardware profile, provide a profile

name and optionally, a description. Next, save the profile, and then click the Reference

Server

link in the

left menu. When the Reference Server page displays, click

Edit -> Browse

and then browse to select a

reference server. After a reference server is selected and settings are modified, close the window by

clicking the X the upper right corner of the window.

Note: When creating a hardware profile, the profile name must not be the same as the existing ones.
