When an administrator schedules a job to deploy a template with virtual identities to servers, the

status of these servers in the Identity Pool is set to “Reserved.” This status indicates that the virtual

identities have been earmarked for these servers and cannot be assigned to other devices until the

job is either completed or cancelled.

Here’s the process:

Template Deployment Scheduled: The administrator schedules the deployment of the template with

virtual identities.

Identity Pool Reservation: The system reserves the required virtual identities in the Identity Pool for

the scheduled job.

Status Set to Reserved: The status of the servers in the Identity Pool reflects this reservation as

“Reserved.”

Job Execution: At the scheduled time (10PM the following day), the job will run, and the virtual

identities will be applied to the servers.

Status Update: Once the job is completed, the status will change to reflect the new state, such as

“Allocated” or “Deployed,” depending on the outcome of the deployment1.

The reservation ensures that there are no conflicts or double-assignments of virtual identities, which

are crucial for network communication and management within OpenManage Enterprise1. For more

detailed information on virtual identity management in Dell OpenManage Operate, administrators

can refer to the official documentation provided by Dell1.
