When the backup files for a collection are created, the backup file for each system is created with the
prefix you specify, followed by the service tag of the system. This format is to manage the backup files
created to ease out the restoring process.
Importing the system profiles in a collection
About this task
You can import the system profiles/backup files that you have created. This option is applicable only if
you have created backup images/profiles of the systems in the collection.
To launch the Platform Restore screen for a collection:
Steps
1. In Configuration Manager 2012 SP2, Configuration Manager 2012 R2 SP1, Configuration Manager
2012 R2, Configuration Manager 2012 SP1, or Configuration Manager 2012, under Device
Collections, right-click All Dell Lifecycle Controller Servers and select Dell Lifecycle Controller →
Launch Config Utility.
2. Select the Platform Restore option.
The steps to import the backup files for a collection are similar to that of importing a backup file for a
single system.
3. Follow step 2 to step 6 as given in Importieren des Systemprofils.
The list of systems for which the backup files exist are displayed in a grid.
4. Select the systems for which you want to import the backup files and click Next.
A task is submitted to the Task Viewer. You can launch the Task Viewer to view the status of the
tasks.
NOTE: If a valid backup file is not available on the network share location for any system, the
grid displays the system with the value No in the Backup File column and the check box is
disabled.
Configuring Part Replacement properties for a collection
About this task
The steps to configure Part Replacement properties for a collection of systems are similar to that of
configuring the properties for a single system. However, the check for valid licenses for the collection of
systems is performed only after you complete configuring the other properties and submit the task.
For the 11th generation of PowerEdge servers, the utility checks for a valid license of the Dell vFlash SD
card on the Lifecycle Controller of the system and for the 12th generation of PowerEdge servers, the
utility checks for an Enterprise license.
To launch the Platform Restore screen for a collection:
Steps
1. In Configuration Manager 2012 SP2, Configuration Manager 2012 R2 SP1, Configuration Manager
2012 R2, Configuration Manager 2012 SP1, or Configuration Manager 2012, under
Device
Collections
, right-click All Dell Lifecycle Controller Servers and select Dell Lifecycle Controller →
Launch Config Utility.
2. Select the Platform Restore option.

Teilersatzeigenschaften für eine Sammlung.
