Quick Deploy of Proles
The Quick Deploy feature enables you to assign a stored prole to a server slot. Any server supporting server conguration replication that
is inserted into a slot is congured using the prole assigned to that slot. You can perform the Quick Deploy action only if the Action When
Server is Inserted option on the Deploy iDRAC page is set to Server Prole option or Quick Deploy and Server Prole option. Selecting
this option allows to apply the server prole assigned when a new server is inserted in the chassis. To go to the Deploy iDRAC page, select
Server Overview > Setup > iDRAC. Proles that can be deployed are stored in the SD card or remote share. To set up the proles for
quick deploy, you must have Chassis Administrator privileges.

Assigning Server Proles to Slots
The Server Proles page enables you to assign server proles to slots. To assign a prole to the chassis slots:

The current prole assignments are displayed for the slots in the select boxes contained in the Assign Prole column.
NOTE
: You can perform the Quick Deploy action only if the Action When Server is Inserted option in the Deploy iDRAC page
is set to Server Prole or Quick Deploy then Server Prole. Selecting this option allows to apply the server prole assigned
when a new server is inserted in the chassis.
2 From the drop-down menu, select the prole to assign to the required slot. You can select a prole to apply to multiple slots.

• To remove a prole assignment from one or more slots, select the slots and click Remove Assignment A message is displayed
warning you that removing a prole from the slot or slots removes the conguration settings in the prole from any server (s)
inserted in the slot (s) when Quick Deploy Proles feature is enabled. Click OK to remove the prole assignments.
• To remove all prole assignments from a slot, in the drop-down menu, select No Prole Selected.
