16.2.4 Setup auto deploy of a template to chassis service tags
A chassis template can be deployed to an unlicensed chassis. Follow the same steps in the Setup bare
metal auto deploy of a template to server service tags section. Select a service tag CSV file of chassis in
step 6.
16.3 How to modify the auto deployment settings
By default, the ‘Deploy Configuration to Undiscovered Devices’ task runs every 60 minutes. When this task
runs, it checks if any of the auto deployment service tags were discovered. If the device matching an auto
deployment service tag was discovered, a deploy template task is automatically created and the specified
template is deployed to that device. To modify the execution interval for the ‘Deploy Configuration to
Undiscovered Devices’ task or to enable/disable it, follow the steps below.
1. Navigate to the ‘Deployment Settings’ tab under the ‘Preferences’ tab.
2. Check or uncheck the ‘Enable auto deployment for recently discovered devices’ to enable or
disable the ‘Deploy Configuration to Undiscovered Devices’ task.
Note: If the task is disabled, the service tags in the ‘Auto Deployment’ grid will not be deployed to
automatically.
3. Adjust the interval using the numeric control. The number is the minute interval that the ‘Deploy
Configuration to Undiscovered Devices’ task will run.
