Exporting server proles
You can export a server prole, including the installed rmware images on various components such as BIOS, RAID, NIC, iDRAC, Lifecycle
Controller, and the conguration of those components. The OMIMSSC Appliance creates a le containing all the congurations, which you
can save on a vFlash SD card or network share. Select a protection vault of your choice to save this le. You can export the conguration
proles of a server or a group of servers immediately or schedule it for a later date. Also, you can select a relevant recurrence option as to
how frequently the server proles are exported. At an instance, you can schedule only one export conguration job for a group of servers.
You cannot perform any other activity on that server or group of servers whose conguration proles are being exported.
