Lumen help
Use Lumen® Edge Service Manager to create a specification (spec) template to configure the functionality of a provisioned instance. Spec templates pair with blueprint layout technology to make specified instances available for provisioning with pre-configured attributes. After you create a spec template, you must create a blueprint layout or create a cluster layout. You can edit, clone, and delete spec templates.
To store files in a repository for your tasks, integrate a Git account into the Edge Service Manager.
Note: Library tab functionality is only available for AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Azure cloud providers.
