Fleet Deploy

Fleet deploy provides a way for Suite users to install + update applications and firmware on multiple vehicles fleet-wide. After selecting an eligible software product along with an available release and one or more vehicles, users can queue a deployment- the specified product will then be installed on the included vehicles over the air.

Requirements For a Deployment

• OTA installation must be enabled for vehicles intended to be used in a deployment - this is defined on a vehicle model basis and needs to be set by the manufacturer via the Vehicle Models tab.

In order to construct a fleet deployment, the following must be true:

• The release for the target product to be deployed must be set as available by its manufacturer. The release cannot be vehicle-specific, (i.e. a release that applies to one or more individual vehicles).

• If the target product is licensed, a license must be assigned to all vehicles intended to be included in the deployment.

The requirements above are also summarized in the Fleet Deploy page info tooltip, pictured below.

How to Queue a Deployment

1. To queue a deployment, navigate to the Fleet Deploy page under Fleet Management.

2. Select the ‘+ New Deployment’ button in the top right corner to navigate to the deployment builder.

3. Select the product, release and set of vehicles to be included in the deployment. If you do not see a product, release, or vehicle option you are expecting, check the requirements above to ensure the component is valid.

4. Click Queue Deployment. The specified product release will now be deployed to each of the selected vehicles the next time they come online.

Note: An individual vehicle release deployment will remain pending until the vehicle comes online.

Viewing Deployment Statuses

You can view the status of queued fleet deployments via the Active and Finished tabs on the Fleet Deploy page.

Active Deployments

Active deployments are listed in the Active tab. Users can view the product deployed, time that the deployment was triggered, and completion progress within each entry. Additionally, hovering on the info ℹ️ icon will display a list of vehicles and their respective deployment statuses.

Finished Deployments

Completed deployments are listed in the Finished tab. Users can view product deployed, time of deployment completion, and a summary of the resulting deployment (counts of deployed, cancelled, and failed vehicle deployments). Like the active deployment list, hovering on the info ℹ️ icon will display a list of vehicles and their respective deployment statuses.

Canceling Deployments

At this time, cancelation can only be done on a vehicle by vehicle basis- users must navigate to an individual vehicle’s Software tab, locate the target product, and click the Cancel button.

Tip: Individual vehicle software pages are linked within the vehicle deployment status info popover within a deployment entry for easy navigation.

The cancelation steps are also summarized in the Fleet Deploy page info tooltip, pictured below.
