Modifying Operational Template

About this task

You can modify the update source, hardware congurations, and operating system of an operational template.

Consider the following before modifying an Operational Template:

• The values of few attributes depend on the values of other attributes. When you change attribute values manually, ensure that you also

change the interdependent attributes. If these interdependent values are not changed appropriately, and then applying the hardware

congurations may fail. Hence, Dell EMC recommends that you do not edit these congurations that are captured in an Operational

Template.

• The step to modify predened Operational Templates and custom created Operational Templates are the same.

• (For SCCM users and servers only) When editing a task sequence on SCCM 2016, the missing objects references messages do not list

the Setup windows and CongMgr package. Hence, you must add the package and then save the task sequence.

• (For SCVMM users and servers only) All the Storage Spaces Direct specic attributes are read-only attributes in the predened

Storage Spaces Direct template. However, you can edit the name of the template, operating system components, and hardware

congurations.

NOTE

: The steps to modify any Operational Template are the same.

Steps

1 Select the template that you want to modify and click Edit.

The Operational Template page is displayed.

2 (Optional) Edit the name and description of the template, and then click Next.

3 To view the available attributes and their values in Device Components, click a component.

4 Modify the values of the available attributes.

NOTE

: Select the check box against each component since only the selected component’s congurations are applied on

the managed system, when the Operational Template is applied.

NOTE: When editing Operational Template, few Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) component attributes that

are read-only are listed as editable. However, when these read-only attributes are set and the Operational Template is

deployed, there are no changes that are made to the device.

• For MX7000 Modular Systems:

– Congurations are applied only if all the attributes for a group are selected. Hence, ensure that you select all the attributes in a

group, even if you want to change one of the attributes in the group.

– To add a new user through an Operational Template, select all the attributes of existing users that were exported when

capturing the Operational Template, select the recently added user groups, and save the Operational Template.

– To provide the time zone values, see Appendix.

5 For the operating system component, perform either of the following tasks depending on your requirement:

• For Windows operating system deployment on SCCM, see Windows component for the OMIMSSC console extension for SCCM.

• For Windows operating system deployment on SCVMM, see Windows component for the OMIMSSC console extension for

SCVMM.

• OMIMSSC

• For non-Windows operating system deployment, see Non-Windows component for the OMIMSSC console extensions.
