Deploying Operational Template on servers

Prerequisites

For deploying operating system on managed servers, ensure that you have the 4093492 KB article or later installed on your management system and on the operating system image that is used for deployment.

About this task

You can deploy Windows and non-Windows operating system—ESXi and RHEL by deploying the Operational Template assigned to servers.
  • NOTE: Download and install appropriate drivers from Dell.com/support if a yellow bang is displayed under Device Manager after you deploy Windows 2016 operating system on 12 th generation of the servers.

Steps

  1. In OMIMSSC, click Configuration and Deployment, and click Server View. Select the servers on which you want to deploy a template on, and then click Deploy Operational Template . The Deploy Operational Template page is displayed.
  2. (Optional) To export all the attributes that are marked as pool values in the selected template to a .CSV file, click Export Pool Attributes, else, go to step 4.
    • NOTE: Before exporting the pool values, add the IP address of the OMIMSSC Appliance where the OMIMSSC console extension is installed, to the local intranet site. For more information about adding the IP address in IE browser, see Browser settings section in Dell EMC OpenManage Integration for Microsoft System Center Version 7.1 for System Center Configuration Manager and System Center Virtual Machine Manager Installation Guide .
  3. If you have exported the pool values, enter values for all the attributes that are marked as pool values in the .CSV file and save the file. In Attribute Value Pool, select this file to import it.

    The format of a .CSV file is attribute-value-pool.csv

    • NOTE: Ensure that you select a .CSV file which has all proper attributes and the iDRAC IP or iDRAC credentials do not change due to the template, since the job is not tracked by OMIMSSC after the iDRAC IP or iDRAC credentials changes and is marked as failed though the job may be successful in iDRAC.
  4. Enter a unique job name, description for the job, and click Deploy.

    To track this job, the Go to the Job List option is selected by default.
