19.4. Making a Profile Abstract

Overview

Making a profile abstract removes it from the list of profiles that can be deployed into containers. This is useful for profiles that are the basis for a group of profiles. For example, you could create a base profile for all of the message brokers in your environment. This profile is then used to create profiles that are tailored for specific message brokers.

Procedure

To make a profile abstract:
  1. Select the profile whose parents you want to change.
    The Profiles page for the selected profile opens.
  2. Click the Abstract toggle.
    The toggle switches between No and Yes.
