Dell EMC OpenManage Integration for Microsoft System Center Version 7.1.1 for System Center Configuration Manager and System Center Virtual Machine Manager

Exporting server profiles

Prerequisites

Disable the F1/F2 Prompt on Error option in BIOS Settings.

About this task

Consider the following before exporting server profiles:
  • At an instance, you can schedule only one export configuration job for a group of servers.
  • You cannot perform any other activity on that server or group of servers whose configuration profiles are being exported.
  • Ensure that the Automatic Backup job in iDRAC is not scheduled at the same time.
  • You cannot export server profiles if the filters are applied. To export server profiles, clear all the applied filters.
  • To export server profiles, ensure that you have the iDRAC Enterprise license.
  • Before exporting server profile, ensure that the IP address of the server is not changed. If the server IP has changed due to any other operation, then rediscover this server in OMIMSSC, and then schedule the export server profile job.

Steps

  1. Select the servers’ whose profiles you want to export, and click Export from Device Profile from drop-down menu.

    The Export Server Profile page is displayed.
  2. In the Export Server Profile page, provide the job details, and then select a protection vault.

    For more information about protection vaults, see Creation of protection vault.

    In Schedule Export Server Profile select one of the following:

    • Run Now—export the server configuration immediately of the selected servers, or group of servers.
    • Schedule—provide a schedule to export the server configuration of the selected group of servers.
      • Never—select to export the server profile only once during the scheduled time.
      • Once a week—select to export the server profile on a weekly basis.
      • Once every 2 weeks—select to export the server profile once every two weeks.
      • Once every 4 weeks—select to export the server profile once every four weeks.
