22.1 Understanding Deploying Updates
You have the following options for deploying an update:
Š
Deploy the update to all devices without using deployment stages. You can schedule the
deployment.
Š
Deploy the update by using deployment stages where one stage automatically starts after the
previous one has completed, unless you have configured stages to pause the deployment and
send e-mail notifications to the administrator. You can schedule the deployment.
Š
Deploy the update by using deployment stages with e-mail notification to allow manual control
for starting the next stage. You can use this option to test the update before deploying it to all
devices in your production environment. You can schedule the deployment.
Š
Deploy the update to specific devices (selected individually and by device groups) without
using deployment stages. You can use this option to test the update before deploying it to all
devices in your production environment. You can schedule the deployment.
If you choose to retire a managed device in ZENworks Control Center before deploying an update to
all the devices in the Management Zone, you must first ensure that the device has retired and
subsequently apply the update. The device is retired only when the ZENworks Adaptive Agent
installed on the device is refreshed. If you deploy the update before the agent is refreshed, the update
is also applied to the retired device. The agent is automatically refreshed during the next device
refresh schedule (the default device refresh interval is set to 12 hours). If you want to deploy the
update before the next device refresh schedule, you must manually refresh the agent.
The Deploying System Updates panel displays the progress and results of deploying an update.
Updates are removed from this panel when the entire update process completes. You can view the
Deployment History panel on the Release Details page for information on deployed updates.
The following figure illustrates the Deploying System Updates panel:
