Conguring prole settings using server conguration
replication
The server congurations replicating feature allows you to apply all prole settings from a specied server to one or more servers. Prole
settings that can be replicated are those prole settings which can be modied and are intended to be replicated across servers. The
following three prole groups for servers are displayed and can be replicated:
• BIOS — This group includes only the BIOS settings of a server.
• BIOS and Boot — This group includes the BIOS and the Boot settings of a server.
• All Settings — This version includes all the settings of the server and components on that server. These proles are generated from:
– 12th generation servers with iDRAC7 1.57.57 or later and Lifecycle Controller 2 version 1.1 or later
– 13th generation servers with iDRAC8 2.05.05 with Lifecycle Controller 2.00.00.00 or later.
The server cloning feature supports iDRAC7 and iDRAC8 Servers. Earlier generation RAC servers are listed, but are greyed out on the main
page, and are not enabled to use this feature.
To use the server congurations replication feature:
• iDRAC must have the minimum version that is required. iDRAC7 servers require version 1.57.57. iDRAC8 servers require version 2.05.05.
• Server must be turned on.
You can:
• View prole settings on a server or from a saved prole.
• Save a prole from a server.
• Apply a prole to other servers.
• Import stored proles from a management station or remote le share.
• Edit the prole name and description.
• Export stored proles to a management station or remote le share.
• Delete stored proles.
• Deploy selected proles to the target devices using Quick Deploy option.
• Display the log activity for recent server prole tasks.
