Create a Profile Occurrence in Wizard

You can create a profile occurrence as you are defining system preferences for a configuration.

A profile is a grouping of variables that belong to a subsystem or a component. A profile occurrence is a version of that profile that has been tailored for a specific system. You can have multiple profile occurrences for the same profile on one system.

Note: To create an occurrence of a profile, the profile must be available in the system registry.

Follow these steps:

1. Click a category in the tree view.

   Information about this category appears in the profile table in the input pane on the right.

2. Click Create in the profiles table.

   A dialog opens for you to enter a value for this profile occurrence.

3. Enter a value and click Save.

   The new profile occurrence is added to the table.

   Note: The new profile occurrence is also added to the system registry.
