Syntax

Convert-OVServerProfileTemplate

    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Use this Cmdlet to change the Server Hardware Type and/or Enclosure Group set within the Server Profile Template. Changing to a different server hardware type may change the capabilities available to the server profile. Changing the enclosure group may change the connections which are available for the profile template.

It may also cause incompatibilities with the current configuration.
All defined connections will have their port assignment set to "Auto".
Any incompatibilities will be flagged when the server profile template is committed.
If the new server hardware type does not support the local storage configuration, some storage may not be configurable.
If the enclosure group is changed, mezzanine storage for HPE Synergy is lost and the disk drives are released.
Any change in the server hardware type will lead to the associated volume loss.

Info

Minimum required privileges: Infrastructure administrator or Server administrator.
