You can now select vNIC profiles for templates when registering them from a storage domain. Accepting into Beta 3 program and assigning to Emma for review. Hi Maor 1. Can you please explain what was the problem that this RFE resolved? Is it that if you created a template based on a VM that was mapped to a vNIC, this configuration was deleted and therefore the user needed to reassign the vNIC per VM that was subsequently created based on this template? 2. Is there a feature page? 3. What is the significance of the registering them from the storage domain? as opposed to registering them from where? Thanks! Emma Hi Emma, you can take a look in BZ1277675 for refrerence (In reply to Emma Heftman from comment #3) > Hi Maor > 1.

(Same for question 1) This feature allows you to map external VNIC profiles that are defined on an imported Template to the ones that are present in the cluster the Template is going to be imported to. The previous solution exchanged all external VNIC profiles that were not present in the target cluster with an empty profile, which removed the imported Tempalte's network functionality. Now, after importing a Template from a data domain, the Tempalte is configured properly according to the VNIC profiles that are defined in the target cluster. > > Thanks! > Emma Hi Emma, In reply to comment 6: 1. IMO step 6 should read: "For each template in the Import Templates(s) window, ensure the correct target cluster is selected in the Cluster list." - same as step 6 of "http://file.tlv.redhat.com/~eheftman/bz1548804/html-single/#Importing_Virtual_Machines_from_an_Imported_Data_Storage_Domain" 2. step 7c should read: "If multiple target clusters are selected in the Import Template(s) window..." HTH Eitan Hey Avital Please review this MR: https://gitlab.cee.redhat.com/rhci-documentation/docs-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/merge_requests/885 Thanks!
