Distribute devices into deployment groups

All systems require this process.

You can gather devices of different types into a SiteConfig deployment group. This allows you to deploy software to all the devices in the deployment group at the same time, as part of the same deployment session. Based on the roles you have assigned to the devices, SiteConfig deploys the proper software to each device. This increases the efficiency of your software deployment with SiteConfig.

If you have not already done so, configure your deployment groups. The recommended deployment group distribution is as follows. Depending on your system design, your system might not have all the device types listed.

In a deployment group named "STRATUS", place the following devices:
- GV STRATUS client PC connected on the corporate LAN for low-resolution (proxy) workflow
- GV STRATUS client PC connected on the media (iSCSI) network for high-resolution workflow
- GV STRATUS servers as follows:
  - Express server
  - Core server
  - Proxy server (A1)
  - Proxy Storage file system server (B1, C1)
  - Render Engine
  - Workflow Server
In a deployment group named "EDIUS", place the following devices:
- GV STRATUS/EDIUS XS client PC connected on the corporate LAN for low-resolution (proxy) workflow
- GV STRATUS/EDIUS Elite client PC connected on the media (iSCSI) network for high-resolution workflow
If you have GV STRATUS Rundown, in a deployment group named "GV STRATUS Rundown", place the following devices:
- IEP
- GV STRATUS Rundown
