Edit VM Profiles

This page allows you to create and configure the profiles that will be used for virtual machine installations.

Creating a new server connection

You can connect to remote Hyper-V, VMWare or other hosts in your sub-network. Use the “New Server Connection” context menu option while Hyper-V Servers, VMWare Servers or Other Servers is selected in the left pane, then configure the connection credentials.

For Other Servers options there is a_Certificate_ field in which you must specify the Certificate generated by the Advanced Installer Tools on your virtual machine. This certificate will be automatically installed.

You can follow the Repackaging an installation in Oracle VM VirtualBox article to find how to setup the server.

Creating a new profile

Use the “New” context menu option or press the+ key while localhost or another custom defined server connection is selected in the left pane.

Duplicating a profile

Use the “Duplicate” context menu option or press the* key while an existing profile is selected. This option comes in handy when you want to create a profile very similar to exiting one.

Setting a profile as active

Use the “Set as active” context menu option. The profile that is active (current) is the one that will be used for the VM installation.

Deleting a profile

Use the “Delete” context menu option or press theDelete key while a profile is selected.
