This procedure describes how to use a targetable component to create hosts by using the browser interface. You can also create hosts from targetable components by using the following commands.
pdb.p.genplan – Creates the plan from the install component procedure.
pe.p.run – Runs the plan.
hdb.h.mod – Configures the host.
To create a virtual host with a targetable component, you must have Run Component Procedures and Allow of Host Sets permissions.
Install the targetable component.
Go to the Hosts page to see the new host and click Details.
(Optional) Update the host's description.
If necessary, update the host-type attribute values.
If the host type that you selected has attributes associated with it, the Edit page lists the attributes and default values in the attribute table. To assign a custom value to an attribute, click the checkbox next to the default value. In the text box that appears, type the new attribute value.
Click Save.
If the new host is a physical host, prepare the host.
