Configure Blueprint Actions
Use blueprint actions and entitlements together to maintain detailed control over provisioned machines.
Entitlements control which machine operations specific users can access. Blueprint actions control which
machine operations can be performed on machines provisioned from a blueprint. For example, if you
disable the option to reprovision machines created from a blueprint, then the option to reprovision a
machine created from the blueprint does not appear for any users. If you enable the reprovision machine
operation, then users who are entitled to reprovision machines can reprovision machines created from
this blueprint.
Note The options that appear on the Actions tab depend on your platform and any customizations
made to your vRealize Automation instance.
Prerequisites
Add Custom Properties to a PXE Blueprint.
Procedure
1 Click the Actions tab.
2 (Optional) Select the check boxes for each machine option to enable for machines provisioned from
this blueprint.
3 Click OK.
Your blueprint is saved in draft state.
What to do next
Publish your blueprint to make it available as a catalog item. See Publish a Blueprint.
