Copying server profiles

You can create several similar server profiles by creating copies of an exist-
ing server profile.

1. To do this, switch to the Server Profiles view in the area on the left of

the ServerView Virtual-IO Manager window. Click Profiles, if appli-
cable.

2. Select the required profile.

3. Select Copy Profile from the context menu of the selected server pro-

file. A copy of the relevant server profile is created.

The copy of a server profile is saved in the server profile repository under the
same name with the suffix _1. If you make several copies, the suffix is incre-
mented. The copy gets a new name and new virtual addresses are assigned.
All other properties (e.g. boot parameter) are equal in the original and the
copy.
