About Template Variables

The Config File Template window (Config Management > Job Management > Config Templates > New) provides a Template Variables field as part of creating a template. As previously noted, variables are optional in template definition, but knowing their format is useful.
Defining variables for config templates uses the same format as for script variables, in which three entries are provided for each variable (the variable name, input type and input format) in the Template Variables field. A simple example is given below:

$usernamestring "User Name"
$passwordstring "New Password"

You can use as many variables as needed in any template.

Note

Scripts use a standard variable called eval_type. This variable is not used in configuration templates.

Otherwise, template variables are treated in the same fashion as defined in the CCS Supplement PDF provided under the Additional Documentation section of the online help.
