Edge Provisioning

Defining Edge Provisioning allows a Distribution to be automatically installed on each new Asset in a Fleet when it first connects to the IoT Studio platform. This configuration ensures that all future Assets added to the Fleet will receive the same distribution when they first connect.
Note: Make sure you have a Distribution created before you create a new Edge Provisioning.
  1. To create a new Edge Provisioning:
    1. From the Edge Ops menu, click Fleet Management > Edge Provisionings.
    2. Click New Edge Provisioning.


      .
    3. In the pane that appears, complete the following required items:
      1. The name of the Edge Provisioning
      2. The Fleet Identifier
      3. The Distribution and Version to be applied to the new Assets
      Only one Edge Provisioning is allowed per Fleet Identifier.
      Figure 1.


  2. To apply an Edge Provisioning to any newly created asset, complete the steps below.
    The Edge Provisioning can be applied to any newly created Asset of the Fleet. Once the Asset has connected (you can check that under Fleet Management > Asset Management), the Edge Applications of the Distribution will be installed. The list of Edge Applications is displayed on the Applications tab of the Asset and marked as "Managed by Edge Updater Service."
