Now, when you deploy this config file to the devices that pass the filter in the General Parameters

editor screen, Dell OpenManage Network Manager first updates this parameter with discovered

data retrieved from the device before restoring the configuration. This facilitates deploying the

same config to many devices while retaining individual Target Params like contacts, DNS

Hostname, and so on.

NOTE:

Target Params include all available discover-able parameters. Some may not apply to the specific device

or configuration file.

Deploy Firmware

resources, or the Image Repository screen. Deployment validates the selected image is appropriate

for the selected devices, or appropriate devices within a group.

Notice you can

Add Schedule

to schedule this deployment rather than

Execute

it immediately.
