    Cisco UCS supports the following types of service profile templates:

    Initial template

    Service profiles created from an initial template inherit all the properties of the template. However, after you create the profile, it is no longer connected to the template. If you need to make changes to one or more profiles created from this template, you must change each profile individually.
    Updating template

    Service profiles created from an updating template inherit all the properties of the template and remain connected to the template. Any changes to the template automatically update the service profiles created from the template.

    Template Type field

    This can be one of the following:

    * Initial Template—vNICs created from this template are not updated if the template changes.
    * Updating Template—vNICs created from this template are updated if the template changes.

    The answers seem to be A and C. You cannot change the template type once it’s created*. There is also no reason to recreate all the templates if only sp template and vNIC template are non-updating (also this breaks the “select two” requirement).
    The problem is: I don’t think it will be enough for the service profiles to start updating. We’ll probably have to recreate them too. Or at least associate with the new updating templates somehow. Oh well.

    * – didn’t find an option to do that in UCS Platform Emulator. Inability to change the template type is also confirmed by this support thread: http://www.techexams.net/forums/off-topic/106104-cisco-ucs-manager-change-service-profile-template-type.html

    Can’t change it in an SP Template in UCSPE, but I WAS able to change it on the vNIC Template.

    I tried to break it in UCSPE, but couldn’t, it works like a charm.

    I tried it both with and without the vNIC Template being attached to an SP Template and directly on an SP also. Seems it’s only a limitation on SP Templates, NOT on vNIC Templates at all.

    No errors came up when I changed Initial/Updating option in vNIC Template, including back and forth. UCSPE is pretty rad.

    SUMMARY:

    In SP Template, under Servers – No option to change.
    General Tab > “Type: Initial”

    In vNIC Template, under LAN – Option exists!
    General Tab > “Template Type: o Initial Template o Updating Template”

    Other steps: use original vNIC Template (changed to Updating) in NEW SP Template (also Updating now) and Bind SPs to the NEW SP Template. ^_^

    Technically C isn’t “wrong” but it is just overkill when you can modify the existing vNIC Template. Poorly worded question. :/
