What is a template?

A template is an XML file that describes what’s being brought along in a VAA.  That allows for discovery or to recreate a VAA along the lines of what’s already been created.  So you don’t have to use the creator and go through a creation process each time.

  • A template defines the content and configuration of a VAA
  • Produced as part of VAA creation or from an existing VAA
  • Can be reused to capture a new application instance and its unique configuration
