Step 2: Creating an Operations Group
From the Hardware Management Console workplace:
1. Open Groups from the Groups View.
2. Open the Defined CPCs group.
Now you are ready to create a new user-defined group that will contain your CPC. You may have multiple
groups, each representing a different way to bring up your systems. You may have groups of single or
multiple CPCs or images.
To get you started and used to the idea of activating objects from within special purpose groups, you will
first create a a group containing a single CPC and this group will represent how you activate your CPC
using parameters for normal operations. In “Step 3: Customize an Activation Profile” on page 3-12, you
will customize an activation profile with a set of parameters that represent how you want to bring up the
CPC, and in “Step 4: Assigning the Activation Profile” on page 3-12 you will assign that new activation
profile to the CPC in your new group.
Finally in “Step 5: Activate the CPC” on page 3-13 you will activate the CPC by selecting from your new
group and it will use the newly customized activation profile.
This process will introduce you to the concepts that you will use to customize your systems.
3. Select a CPC and drag and drop it on Grouping in the Daily task list. Note that you could select
multiple CPCs or images and create a group consisting of the selected objects.
4. You name the group anything you want to. The name should be meaningful to you. For these
examples, we will use the name
