Examples
1: Create a service configuration for
a host group.
The first command gets the host group object with the path All Hosts\HostGroup02\Production and stores the object in the $HostGroup variable.
The second command gets the service template object named ServiceTemplate01 and stores it in the $ServiceTemplate variable.
The third command creates a service configuration object in the library for the host group stored in $HostGroup using the service template object stored in $ServiceTemplate. The command then stores the new service configuration object in the $ServiceConfig variable.
The last command displays the properties of the new service configuration object to the user.
2: Create a service configuration for
a private cloud.
The first command gets the private cloud object named Production and stores the object in the $Cloud variable.
The second command gets the service template object named ServiceTemplate01 and stores it in the $ServiceTemplate variable.
The third command creates a service configuration object in the library for the private cloud stored in $Cloud using the service template object stored in $ServiceTemplate. The command then stores the new service configuration object in the $ServiceConfig variable.
The last command displays the properties of the new service configuration object to the user.
