When you have a need to enable the same services on multiple hosts, creating a template and applying it to the applicable hosts can save you time. You can apply one template to up to 100 hosts without the hassle of creating the same configurations repeatedly. In addition, each template can serve up to 500 hosts. Using templates can also simply simplify planning, deployment, and maintenance for your BloxOne infrastructure.
A template is a set of service configurations you define have defined for a host. When creating a template, BloxOne takes a snapshot of all the services service configurations on the host, including the following information: service name, service type, service description, service tags, and interface labels (interface bindings). After you create a template, you can apply it to other hosts that require the same service configurations.
The Cloud Services Portal logs the following template actions to the audit log: create, update, apply, and delete. For information, see Viewing Audit Logs.
The Templates page of the Cloud Services Portal displays the list of all configured templates.
You can also do the following:
