Reconstruct a deleted server profile
If you accidentally delete a server profile with SAN storage provisioned to the virtual initiator WWPNs of the profile, the initiator WWPNs will still exist in the storage array volume export. You can reconstruct the deleted profile with the correct initiator WWPNs.
When recreating an accidentally deleted server profile, you might have some IDs, such as WWPNs, but not others, for example, virtual MAC addresses for the FC connection. For IDs you might no longer have, you can create a temporary unassigned profile with an Ethernet connection, copy the virtual MAC address, and then delete the temporary profile to return the virtual MAC address back to the ID pool. You can then use this virtual MAC address to reconstruct the FC connections using the original WWPNs but a different MAC address.
