Create an Assessment Template

Assessment templates specify the hardware criteria for assessing computers for OS readiness. Create assessment templates to be able to use them in the assessment jobs. You can either use a DSM query or specify the hardware criteria stating the minimum hardware requirements for the new OS.

Note: Assessment templates are not mandatory for performing assessment; you can directly specify the hardware criteria or use a query in the assessment job. However, creating the templates help you reuse them across jobs.

To create an assessment template

1. Log into the Web Console and click the Automated Migration tab.

   The Automated Migration page is displayed.

2. Click Assessment Templates.

   The existing assessment templates are listed.

3. Click New in the Actions pane.

   The New Assessment Job wizard opens.

4. Follow the instructions in the wizard pages and click Finish in the last page.

   The template is created and added to the list of templates.
