Phased Deployments
SoftwareCentral has the possibility to create, manage and monitor phased deployments. A Phased Deployment in SoftwareCentral is a sequenced rollout of software to multiple devices, divided into phases.
Phases can be based on members from a collection or from a fixed list. You define the success criteria for a phase, before SoftwareCentral will move on to the next phase. There are no limits for how many phases there can be.
You can create a Phased Deployment of a package, application, task sequence and application group.
You can required that a phase must be approved before it will start.
And you can get status reports by mail.
