SCP Import is the process in which the XML or JSON template is applied to the server. Any configuration settings available in the template are applied. Any workflows (OSD and firmware update) triggered by the template are also performed during this operation. SCP Import might restart the host system multiple times to apply all requests but only restarts the host if required. You can find results and any potential errors by either exporting the Lifecycle Controller Log (LCL) or viewing the configuration results for the SCP Import job ID using the CLI.
Note: Supported network shares are NFS, CIFS, HTTP, and HTTPS.
Note: Starting in iDRAC 7.00.00, you can pass in nondefault port settings for your web server.
