350-601 Compute Practice Question
A UCS domain is configured with multiple service profile templates. An engineer wants to ensure that when a template is updated, all associated service profiles are automatically updated. Which property must be enabled in the template?
⚠ Common exam trap
Cisco often tests the distinction between 'Update on deployment' and 'Enforce consistency', where candidates may confuse the automatic update mechanism with a compliance-checking policy, leading them to select the wrong option.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
'Update on deployment'
The 'Update on deployment' property, when enabled in a service profile template, ensures that any changes made to the template are automatically applied to all associated service profiles during the next deployment or re-deployment. This is the correct mechanism in Cisco UCS Manager to propagate template updates to existing service profiles without manual intervention.
