Copy an existing configuration baseline
You use this method to create a configuration baseline when you want a configuration base-
line with the properties of an existing configuration baseline. After you make the copy, you
can modify the properties to create the configuration baseline you require. When you copy
a configuration baseline, you do not maintain a relationship between the new configuration
baseline and the configuration baseline that you copied. To copy a configuration baseline,
select the configuration baseline that you want to copy and then, on the ribbon, click Copy.
This opens the Configuration Baseline Name dialog box.
Deploying a configuration baseline to a collection of client devices enables you to perform an
evaluation of those devices against the baseline. To deploy a configuration baseline, select an
existing configuration baseline and then, on the ribbon, click Deploy. This opens the Deploy
Configuration Baselines dialog box shown in Figure 4-4.
