About vSphere
®
Host Profiles
The vSphere Host Profiles documentation provides information about managing Host Profiles.
The vSphere Host Profiles documentation describes how to manage and configure Host Profiles in the
vSphere Client.
Intended Audience
The vSphere Host Profiles documentation is intended for administrators who are familiar with vSphere
host configuration.
vSphere Client
Instructions in this guide reflect the vSphere Client (an HTML5-based GUI). You can also use the
instructions to perform most of the tasks by using the vSphere Web Client (a Flex-based GUI).
Tasks for which the workflow differs significantly between the vSphere Client and the vSphere Web Client
have duplicate procedures that provide steps according to the respective client interface. The procedures
that relate to the vSphere Web Client, contain vSphere Web Client in the title.
Note In vSphere 6.7, most of the vSphere Web Client functionality is implemented in the vSphere Client.
For an up-to-date list of the unsupported functionality, see Functionality Updates for the vSphere Client.
