Exporting a device deployment template
You can export a device deployment template to an XML (server conguration template) or an INI (chassis conguration template)
le. Exporting the attributes enables you to use an alternative method to edit the attributes. After editing the template, you can
import the template and use it for deployment.
To export a device deployment template:
NOTE: Exporting a device template exports all the attributes of the template, including attributes that are not selected.
1. Click Deployment → Deployment Portal.
2. In the Templates pane, right-click either a sample template or a template that you created, and then click Export Template.
3. Navigate to the location where you want to export the template, provide a lename, and then click Save.

Deploying a device deployment template—Bare-metal deployment
The Deploy Template task allows you to deploy a conguration template that includes a set of conguration attributes to specic
devices. Deploying a device conguration template on the devices ensures that the devices are uniformly congured. Bare-metal
servers and chassis are devices that only have basic iDRAC communication congured are not yet provisioned for operations.
Before you begin deploying a device deployment template, ensure that:
• The deployment le share is congured. For more information, see Conguring the Deployment File Share.
• The target devices are added to the repurpose and bare-metal group, or a compute pool. For more information, see Adding
Devices to the Repurpose and Bare Metal Devices Group.
• You have either created a device deployment template or cloned a sample template.
• The target devices meet the requirements specied in Device Requirements for Deployment and Compliance Tasks.
• The Server Conguration Management license is installed on all target servers. For more information, see OpenManage
Essentials — Server Conguration Management License.
• For IOA VLAN conguration deployment, the template must be created from a blade server.
NOTE: Dell EMC recommends that you deploy the conguration templates that are captured from a server with BOSS-S1
AHCI controller as-is without editing the attributes.
CAUTION: Deploying a conguration template on a device may result in potentially destructive changes to the device
conguration including performance, connectivity, and ability to boot the device.
To deploy the conguration template on bare-metal devices:
1. Click Deployment.
The Deployment Portal is displayed.
2. Perform one of the following:
• In the Common Tasks pane, click Deploy Template.
• In the Compute Pools pane, right-click the compute pool that has the target devices, and then click Deploy.
