Description

This Cmdlet will allow the user to "clone" or create a Server Profile Template from an existing Server Profile object. Not all Server Profile features will be converted to a Server Profile Template. For instance, the following features are not supported with a Server Profile Template:

Import existing local Smart Array Logical Disk configuration
Attach SAN Storage Volumes must be assigned a unique LUN ID

If the source Server Profile has the "Import existing logical drives" enabled, this setting will be disabled, and the Local Disk Configuration policy will be set to "disabled".

If any SAN Storage Volume attachments contain an "Auto" LUN value, it will be set to "Manual", with the LUN ID set to a unique value based on the Array Index value.

Info

Minimum required privileges: Infrastructure administrator or Server administrator.
