Convert Existing Deployments to Use Update Rings

How to convert an existing Patch My PC Cloud deployment to use Update Rings

Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud

If you have already successfully deployed an app using Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud, you can convert that deployment to use Update Rings.

To convert an existing deployment to use Update Rings:

1. Edit the deployment and navigate to the Assignments tab.

   

   Any existing assignments for the deployment are shown.

   
2. Click Enable Update Rings.

   
3. On the Move Assignments or Delete dialog box, click Move to create the Update Rings and move any existing assignments to the first Update Ring.

   

Note

Clicking Delete will delete any existing assignments, not the deployment itself. It will also create the default two Update Rings with default settings.

Any existing assignments are moved into the first Update Ring.

4. Continue from Step 3 of the Create Update Rings process to configure your Update Rings. For example, adding additional assignments, moving assignments between rings, etc.

5. Once you have completed reconfiguring the deployment, click Save.

   

The deployment will be updated and the Update Rings will be created depending on the type of rings you chose (Delayed or Immediate).
