1If you use the Profile Management
Tool, adhere to the following guidelines when creating a custom profile:
- On the Federation panel, ensure that the host name and port information match your deployment manager (the default information is localhost and 8879). Make sure that you do not select Federate this node later check box. Specify the deployment manager user name and password.
- For most cases, choose the Typical profile creation option. If you want to modify default attributes of the deployment manager profile (such as the port numbers), select the Advanced profile creation option.
