    1. Click Select, and then select device(s) in the Job Target dialog box. See Selecting target devices and device groups.
    2. Click OK.
  3. In the Host Names dialog box, you can change the Host name of the target IOA device. Click Next.
  4. In the Advanced Options dialog box, select Preview Mode to simulate the deployment or select Continue On Warning to deploy the template and ignore the warnings encountered. Click Next.
  5. In the Schedule section, run the job immediately or schedule for a later time. See Schedule job field definitions.
  6. Click Finish. Review the Warning message and click YES.
    A Device Configuration job is created under Jobs. See Using jobs for device control.
