Creating a provisioning operation - Post Provisioning

The Post Provisioning page of the provisioning wizard specifies Batch Jobs that run after a VM is provisioned. Batch Jobs can install software, run NSH Script Jobs, or execute any other BladeLogic jobs needed to perform configuration tasks.

To specify post provisioning tasks

With the Post Provisioning page, you can specify Batch Jobs using the following approaches:

Perform a text search to identify a Batch Job.

  1. Select the Search tab, enter a text string in the text box at right, and then click Search Search.gif. The results of the search appear in a list. For each item in the list, the portal provides the BMC Server Automation folder where the item is stored.
    Results of a search return the first 100 items found.

  2. In the list, select an item to use.

Navigate to a Batch Job.

  1. Select the Browse tab. The Jobs folder appears at left.

  2. Navigate to the folder containing the Batch Job you want to use.
    If the folder holds content that is appropriate for this type of operation, the content appears in the list at right. 
    To find content, you may need to navigate through a folder structure. As you traverse folders, a trail of "bread crumbs" appears above the Folder list. You can select any name in the bread crumbs to display the contents of that folder. 

  3. Select an item from the list to use in this operation.
