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 you enable this option, you can schedule a single automatic deployment or set up recurring automatic deployments. To schedule an automatic deployment, see Schedule an Automatic Deployment.

Changes you make on Security Cloud Control for a device are not automatically deployed to the device if it has pending changes Pending changes.. 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 you turn off Enable the Option to Schedule Automatic Deployments, 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 for a device using the API, you must delete the existing deployment before scheduling the new deployment.
