Create the Server Profile Template for the HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen9
Servers
If an HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen9 server has multiple NICs (for example, a LOM card and a NIC or CNA in
mezz slot 1), the connection for the Mgmt_A and the Mgmt_B management networks should be only on the
LOM NIC/CNA. The HPE OneView for vCenter plugin does not support the use of Mgmt_A on multiple NICs
because it causes deployment failures.
