Prerequisites

Overview

If you've defined a Server in the past using ServerTemplate 'X' and later delete it from the RightScale account, the Server will remain and continue to reference a deleted ServerTemplate.   In such cases, if you attempt to view a deleted ServerTemplate, you will have the option of adding it back to your local collection, provided that you have the appropriate user role privileges and the ServerTemplate is still available to the RightScale account.

Steps

If you see the following error message (Warning, this ServerTemplate has been deleted!  Use 'clone' to resurrect it.)  when viewing a ServerTemplate's show page, click the Clone button to add the ServerTemplate back to your local collection.
