Working with Existing VSCs

You can associate an existing VSC with a VSC blueprint. A VSC can only be associated with one blueprint.

1. In the Hosted Console website, click Configuration > VSC Blueprints.
2. In the VSC blueprint list, click the VSC blueprint that you want to associate with an existing VSC.
3. In the Applied VARs section, click Add VAR.
4. Select the check box of the VSC you want to associate with the selected VSC blueprint.
5. Click OK.

The VAR appears in the Applied VARs section of the VSC Blueprints Editor window.

Modifying Existing VSC Blueprints and Applying them to Existing VSCs

You can modify existing blueprints; however, there are restrictions on what can be modified and then applied to the existing VSCs that are associated with the blueprint. Only additions can be performed to existing VARs which includes importing policy modules, reports and scripts and applying policy modules to groups; also when applying More Actions, such as importing policy modules, reports and scripts to existing VARs, there is an option to add the content being imported to the VSC Blueprint. If the additions are applied with the option to update the VSC Blueprint, any new VSCs you create will automatically use the modified version of the blueprint.

If you do make changes to policy modules, reports or scripts, you will have to import them into the existing VSCs. If you are importing policy modules, then you also have to apply the policy module to the group.
