Provisioning servers
When you create a Provision Job, you can optionally select devices to provision. More typically, you create and save a Provision Job without devices. Later, you open the Provision Job, add devices that are ready to provision, and run the Job. You can rerun the same job many times, with new devices selected each time.
To be provisioned, a device must be imported into the TrueSight Server Automation Console and appear in the Devices folder.
To provision servers, you create and run Provision Jobs. The table provides links to topics for provisioning servers.
