Edit Server Role Action Dialog

Use this Model Editor action dialog to edit server roles on the selected server.

The following elements appear in the Edit server role action dialog.

  • Select Usage profile
    Select the usage profile to apply to this server role. You can modify or create new server roles with the Edit Usage Profile Action Dialog.
  • Server role
    Select the server components that the server has available. Depending on your selection, Subrole and Service configuration items associated with the component might appear. Some roles require a 64-bit processor and some roles require a storage configuration.
  • Subrole
