You can import a system-plan file into the Integrated Virtualization Manager (IVM) management partition.
You can then deploy the system plan to the system that the Integrated Virtualization Manager manages.
You must import a system-plan file into the IVM management
partition before you can deploy the system plan to the managed system. To
deploy the imported system plan successfully, the hardware on the managed
system must match or exceed the hardware in the system plan. To import a system-plan
file, you must be the prime administrator (padmin). For more information about
user roles, refer to User roles.
To import a system-plan file into the IVM management
partition, complete the following steps:
- From the navigation area, select Manage System Plans. The Manage System Plans page opens.
- Click Create/Import system plan in the toolbar
at the top of the System Plans table. The Create/Import
System Plan page opens.
- Select the Import option.
- Enter the fully qualified path and file name
of the system-plan file into the System plan file name field.
Or, click Browse to select the system-plan file from
the local file system. The name of the system-plan file must end
with the .sysplan file name suffix and can use alphanumeric
characters only.
- Click OK. If the IVM returns
an error, return to step 4 and
verify that the information you entered in this field is correct.
You now can use the imported system-plan file to deploy the system
plan to the system that the IVM manages.
