Enable the Option to Schedule Automatic Deployments

Enabling the option to schedule automatic deployments allows you to schedule future deployments at a date and time when it is convenient. Once enabled, you can schedule a single or a recurring automatic deployment. To schedule an automatic deployment, see Schedule an Automatic Deployment.

Note that changes made on Security Cloud Control for a device are not automatically deployed to the device if it has pending changes of its own . If a device is not in the Synced state, such as Conflict Detected or Not Synced, scheduled deployments are not executed. The jobs page lists any instance where a scheduled deployment fails.

If Enable the Option to Schedule Automatic Deployments is turned off, all scheduled deployments are deleted.

Important

If you use Security Cloud Control to create more than one scheduled deployment for a device, the new deployment overwrites the existing deployment. If you create more than one scheduled deployment a device using API, you must delete the existing deployment prior to schedule the new deployment.

To enable the option to schedule automatic deployments, follow this procedure:
