Acronis OS Deploy Server is in custom deployment mode
12. The Custom Deployment tab shows the status of deployment operations performed on users’
requests. The tab is empty if none of the users are deploying at the moment.
While the deploy server is in custom deployment mode, you are able to:
- change parameters of the custom deployment mode
- create new media for the custom deployment mode
- stop the selected operation, if need be, by selecting Cancel Deployment
- switch off the custom deployment mode.
The user that requested deployment sees the following screen while the deployment is progress.
