A deployment project allows you to easily select products to deploy to your target systems, and schedule the deployment.
Note
Expired products appear in the Packages list. You can uninstall them from target systems in Actions.
For details about product features, usage, and best practices, click ? or Help.
Select Menu → Software → Product Deployment.
Select New Deployment to start a new project.
Type a name and description for this deployment. This name appears on the Product Deployment page after you save the deployment.
To specify which software to deploy or uninstall, select a product from the Package list. Click + or - to add or remove packages.
Important
Your software must be checked in to the Main Repository before it can be deployed. The Language and Branch fields are populated automatically, as determined by the location and language specified in the Main Repository.
From the Actions list, select Install or Uninstall.
In the Command line text field, specify any command-line installation options. For information about command-line options, see the product documentation for the software you're deploying.
Under Select the systems, click Select Individual Systems or Select by Tag or Group.
Select Individual Systems — Results in a fixed deployment
Select by Tag or Group — Results in a continuous deployment
The System Selection dialog box allows you to select systems in your System Tree using these tabs:
System Tree — Select System Tree groups or subgroups and their associated systems.
Tags — Select tag groups or tag subgroups and their associated systems.
Selected Systems — Displays the total selections you made in each tab, creating the target systems for your deployment.
For example, if your System Tree contains Group A, which includes both servers and workstations, you can target the entire group. You can also target only the servers or only the workstations (if they are tagged correctly), or a subset of either system type in Group A.
The Total field displays the number of systems, groups, or tags selected for the deployment.
To automatically update your products, select from these Auto Update options.

Note
During a new deployment, the Trellix Agent checks for new updates, hotfixes, and content packages of all installed products on the client. See the Trellix Agent documentation for details.
Under Select a start time select a schedule for your deployment:
Run Immediately — Starts the deployment task during the next ASCI.
Once or Daily — Opens the scheduler so you can configure the start date, time, and randomization.
Click Save at the top of the page. The Product Deployment page opens with your new project added to the list of deployments.
After you create a deployment project, a client task is automatically created with the deployment settings.
