About Deployments

In OptiTune, when you want to deploy a task to a computer or group of computers, you need to create a "deployment".

For example, if you want to install Microsoft Office 2010 on a group of computers, you would first create an Install Task for Microsoft Office 2010. Then, you would "deploy" the install task (or any other task) to a group of computers by creating a deployment using the "Add" button.

Once you have created the deployment, OptiTune will execute the specified task on the group of computers according to the schedule you've defined.
