Go to the “Servers” management area of the CMC.

Select the server that hosts services whose configuration template you
want to set.

Choose Properties from the Manage menu.
Note:
You can also double-click the server to open its “Properties” page.

Managing and Configuring Servers

Configuring server settings. Configure the service settings that you want to use in the template, select the Set Configuration Template check box and click Save or Save & Close.
The configuration template for the service type that you selected is defined according to the settings of the current server. Other servers of the same type hosting the same services will be automatically and immediately reconfigured to match the configuration template if they have the Use Configuration Template option enabled in their properties.

Note:

If you don’t explicitly define the settings for the configuration template,
the service’s default settings are used.

  1. Set the configuration template on one server.

  2. Assuming you want the same configuration on all servers of the same
    type, check Use Configuration Template for all servers of the same
    type, including the one where you set the configuration template.

  3. Later, if you want to change the configuration of all services of this type,
    view the properties of any one of the services, deselect the Use
    Configuration Template check box. Change the settings you want, then
    select Set Configuration Template for this server and click Save. All
    services of that type are updated. By not having a server that is always
    set as the configuration template, you ensure that you will not accidentally
    change configuration settings for all servers of that type
