Deploy device templates
You can deploy a template that includes a set of configuration attributes to specific devices. Deploying a device configuration template on
the devices ensures that the devices are uniformly configured.

To perform any tasks on OpenManage Enterprise, you must have necessary user privileges. See Role-based
OpenManage Enterprise user privileges.
Before you begin deploying a device deployment template, ensure that:
• You have either created a device deployment template or cloned a sample template. See Create a template.
• The target devices meet the requirements specified in Minimum system requirements for deploying OpenManange Enterprise.
• The OpenManage Enterprise license is installed on all the target devices.
CAUTION:
Ensure that only the appropriate devices are selected for deployment. After deploying a configuration
template on a repurpose and bare-metal device, it may not be possible to revert the device to its original configuration.
NOTE: During deployment of a MX7000 chassis template:
• The target device can only be the lead MX7000 chassis.
• If a MX7000 chassis is removed from group, it has to be rediscovered in OpenManage Enterprise.
• Users on the MX7000 chassis is replaced by the users configured in the template.
