Adding a server to an existing service for vCloud

Starting with BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management  4.5 patch 3, you can add a server to an existing service by using the Add Server Post-Deployment action. Perform the following steps to add a new virtual machine (VM) to an existing service:

Note

The Add Server Post-Deployment action allows you to add a new VM with the configurations that were used to create the base VM. To enable adding a new server as a clone of an existing vCloud VM, BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management cloud administrators must add server options and option choices. For more information, see Service-Catalog-options-and-option-choices.
