Create a Template for a Service

Service reservations are created exclusively through reservation templates. Service parameters are defined at the time the service template is created. The administrator can override these parameter values when making a reservation with Reservation Manager. The parameters are used to configure services properly when systems are allocated.

Service templates for Reservation Manager are automatically created when they are created in the Server Automation interface. You can also create or modify service templates with the Reservation Manager interface.

Note: You do not need to create system images for Services.

To create a service template in Reservation Manager

  1. As administrator in Reservation Manager, under Administer Your Reservation Manager, click Manage your reservation templates.
  2. Select Create Service from the Actions drop-down menu.

    The Create Service wizard opens. Follow the instructions in the wizard.
