Appliance Configuration Template Properties

Appliance configuration templates allow administrators to simultaneously configure multiple units from the DSView software. An appliance configuration template may be used to configure new units or to replace existing units. For more information about appliance configuration templates, see the DSView help (keywords: configuration templates). These properties are applied to an ACS 6000 console server when the Appliance Replacement, Apply Configuration Template, Apply Last Know Good Configuration Template or Apply Current Configuration Template operations are executed.

NOTE: The settings may vary depending on the model. Some models do not support all settings.

The following table lists the Appliance Settings pages that are supported for the ACS 6000 console server configuration templates.
