By default, all components contained within the SCP template are processed and all detected changes are applied. SCP Import offers the option to selectively import specified components from a full template. The same options detailed in Selective export are available for selective import.
Example:
racadm set ‐t xml ‐f export.xml ‐u username ‐p password ‐l //ip/share/ ‐c iDRAC,NIC.Integrated.1‐1‐1
racadm provides the -c option for selective import. In the preceding example, export.xml will be imported from a network share and only process the iDRAC.Embedded.1 and NIC.Integrated.1-1-1 components.
Most interfaces allow for both the full FQDD or a shorthand version to import all components of a given type. The shorthand NIC would import NIC.Integrated.1-1-1, NIC.Integrated.2-1-1, and so on, but the full FQDD NIC.Integrated.1-1-1 would only process the component for that specific device.
Shorthand values can be used for both SCP Export and SCP Import. For information about shorthand values, see Table 2.
