VDB config templates

A VDB config template is a list of database configuration parameter names and values that you can save on the Delphix Engine to use at a later time.

Creating a VDB config template via GUI

Log into the Delphix Management application as an engine administrator.
Click Manage.
Select VDB Config Templates.
Click the
icon next to the VDB Config Temp... and select New Template to create a new template.
In the New Template dialog window, enter the name for the new template, the parameters that you want to provide, and select the template type from the available options.
Click Create.

Updating a VDB config template via GUI

Log into the Delphix Management application as an engine administrator.
Click Manage.
Select VDB Config Templates.
Select the template from the left-side pane that you need to update.
Click on the pencil icons next to the parameters to edit an existing VDB template.
To add a new parameter, click the plus icon, and enter a name and value of the parameter.
Click the
button to save the changes or click the
button to discard the changes that you made.

You can apply a VDB Config Template to a VDB during the provisioning process, which copies the values from the template. Any subsequent changes to the template will be reflected in the VDB when that VDB is refreshed/rewinded. During provisioning, you can specify configuration parameters directly or copy them from a VDB Configuration Template. Once set, the Delphix Engine will use these parameters whenever the VDB is refreshed/rewinded, even if you change the original template.
