Managing Virtual Portal Device Configuration Templates
CTERA Portal enables you to centrally manage device settings, by assigning devices to device configuration templates: When a device is assigned to a template, it inherits the following settings from that template:
*Backup sets and exclude sets
*Backup applications (relevant for CTERA Server Agents only)
*Backup schedule
*Backup throughput control
*Scripts that run on CTERA Agents (relevant for CTERA Agent devices only)
*Installed software and firmware versions
*Automatic firmware updates
Note: Some of these settings can be overridden by an agent end user.
In this section
Devices can be assigned to templates in the following ways:
*Automatic template assignment.
Devices can be assigned to templates based on the automatic template assignment policy, which specifies a set of criteria for assigning a template such as device type and operating system, as well as an optional default template that is assigned when none of the criteria are met.
*Manually, by editing the device settings.
