In the IGEL Universal Management Suite (UMS), you can copy a profile directory and paste it into any directory.

Copying and pasting are also possible between standard profile directories and priority profile directories. If you copy a standard profile directory and paste it into a priority profile directory, the copies of the standard profiles will be defined as priority profiles. If you copy a priority profile directory and paste it into a standard profile directory, the copies of the priority profiles will be defined as standard profiles. Information regarding priority profiles can be found under (12.01-en) Priority Profiles in the IGEL UMS.


Menu path: UMS Console > Profiles

To copy a profile directory, proceed as follows:

  1. Click on the profile directory that you want to copy.

  2. Open the context menu for the profile directory and select Copy.

  3. Click on the directory in which you would like to paste the copy of the profile directory. This can also be the directory in which the original profile directory is located.

  4. Open the context menu for the directory and select Paste.

A new profile directory which has the same name as the original profile directory will be created. The new profile directory will contain newly created copies of the profiles contained in the original profile directory as well as copies of the sub-directories. The copies of the profiles are not yet assigned to a device, irrespective of the assignments of the original profiles.
