Manage profiles

Like hosts and projects, profiles must be added at the domain level before they can be used by individual projects. Likewise, they can be administratively disabled from use at the domain level.

• Add a profile to the Lab Managenment domain
  In Lab Management, a "profile" is a reproducible collection of software packages that comprise a runnable operating system and accompanying set of applications. Every system inside the Lab Management environment has an operating system profile installed on it.
• Modify the XML definition for a profile
  Rather than using a Subversion client to check out and edit a profile, you can edit the profile XML definition in a text box in the Lab Management user interface. This allows you the greatest flexibility in changing parts of the profile.
• Stop using a profile
  In Lab Management, profiles can be permanently deleted or disabled.
• Enable a profile
  To build a machine with a profile that has been disabled, you must re-enable the profile.
