Managed node

A custom profile is an empty node that you must federate into a deployment manager cell to make operational. Federating the custom profile changes it into a managed node.

In contrast to a stand-alone server profile, a custom profile does not have a default server on its node. Nor are there any default applications on the custom node. After federation, a custom profile has a nodeagent process but does not have a server process. You must use the administrative console of the deployment manager to customize the empty node for production or other uses. After you start the nodeagent, it responds to commands from the deployment manager to perform tasks that include the following actions:

A managed node can contain one or more servers, which are managed by a deployment manager. You can deploy solutions to the servers in a managed node, but the managed node does not contain a sample applications gallery. The managed node is defined by a custom profile and has a First Steps console.
