Assignments Page

Use this page to monitor and configure the images that you have assigned to the hardware servers.

The activity wherein you select an image or a suite of images and provision them on respective hardware targets, is termed as an assignment. The Provisioning application facilitates the creation of assignments. An assignment is a selection of an image (or suite) and the required network component that will be applied on the selected hosts.

Unlike other provisioning tools, Oracle Provisioning will remove all the existing components for the specified hardware target and replace them with the components that are part of the selected image. This helps in maintaining a consistency and control of the software components across an enterprise.

Note: Once you create the required assignments, the "ready" assignments must then be provisioned. When you submit the provisioning job, the targets and images that you have selected for that assignment will be locked. While you will still be able to modify the network components and directives, the selected images and targets will remain unchanged.
