Deploying Packages

Once packages are uploaded to Predix Edge Technician Console, they can be deployed to the device.

Before you begin

You must upload the package to Predix Edge Technician Console before you can deploy it to the device.

Procedure

In the left navigation pane, click Applications Manager.
In the Available Packages section, select the package to deploy, then select Actions > Deploy.
In the Deploy dialog box, click Deploy.

Note: If you have previously deployed a package with the same Application ID as the one you selected, you receive a warning message that the app already exists on the device and will be redeployed (rather than deployed).
You can proceed with redeploying the app; or enter a unique application ID to deploy a separate instance of the app if you want to run multiple instances of the same app on the device.
The package is deployed to the device and appears in the Deployed Instances section of the Applications Manager page. The package status updates as follows:
1. Deploying
2. Starting
3. Running
