About the provisioning Detach process

The Detach process may be used when you need to make modifications to a deployed template. This section describes what happens programmatically during this process.
 
CAUTION: When you Detach a deployed template it is no longer handled as a deployed template. This means that the template cannot be upgraded in the future.
 

Note that any links and relations will be maintained.

  1. Upon clicking Detach the Detach confirmation window alerts the user that this will detach the selected deployed templates and that detached templates cannot be upgraded. The window prompts the user to confirm if he/she wishes to continue by clicking a checkbox and the Yes button.
  2. Removes the TemplateConfig component from the deployed template root component.
  3. Removes the "ntpl" tags from the deployed template root component.
  4. If "Remove Composite Slots" is selected,
    1. for each root component composite link (template input)
      1. Creates a new link to eliminate the composite slot and removes the composite slot and adds a new link to the internal target.
    2. for each root component composite knob (template output)
      1. Creates a new link to eliminate the composite slot and removes the composite slot and adds a new link to the external target.
  5. Completes the detach process.
