Create a child configuration

A child configuration is a copy of a baseline configuration. Once you've created the child, use that as the version you modify.

1. On the home page, find a configuration you want to use as your baseline.
2. In the Actions menu, click Create.
3. At Name, enter a name for the new configuration.
4. At Base Configuration, select the baseline configuration.
5. Click Submit.

When you copy a configuration, the copy initially displays in the home page grid in a disabled (grayed out) state while the copy process is underway. The copy name displays in italicized, non-hyperlinked format, with “copy in progress” appended to the name. Additionally, the Action column does not display edit, copy, and delete options.

When Configuration Designer creates the copy and you refresh the page, the link in the home page grid returns to an active, hyperlinked state. You can then interact with the configuration as desired.
