See QuickStart: Find or Pair New System to Otto to find or pair a system.
Once you've located or paired your system, you can take action on that system on the System page. At the top of the System page there are a list of available actions depending on your role.
To push software or a configuration to a machine, click Packages and Configurations.
On the left the Active Directory object is shown, and on the right the catalog of available software is shown with filters.
Click Add on the appropriate title to initiate the deployment process.
- You don't need to refresh the page, Otto will automatically refresh the page during the deployment process.
- Once the addition is confirmed the system will usually be ready to install the application within 15-30 minutes (due to Ottomate's speeder-upper job below), but some applications require the user to logout.
- Otto asks Ottomate (our helper service) to attempt to speed up some SCCM operations, including a collection update for the package you just pushed, and triggering hardware inventory on the system. This process can take several minutes, and will send the tech a 1-1 Slack message when complete. When these two steps are successful, SCCM becomes able to enforce the application within minutes.
