Questions regarding rollouts

[bogdanml999]

Hi,

I'm a beginner using Hawkbit, and I have some questions regarding the rollout feature:

1. Is there a way to schedule rollouts using a cron job? (I've only seen the option 'Maintenance window' on manual updates. But I don't see an option to set cron on rollouts.)
2. Is there an option to set the rollout to run again on new devices if they can be found using the target filter used in the
   rollout definition? I've only found the 'Auto assignment' option on target filter, which runs on new devices added to the target filter but I'm curios if is possible on rollout too so that I can run updates on specific time on the devices that are new.

Thank you.

1. I suppose you search for an option to run same rollouts periodically in order every next to include new devices (seeing your second question). No - there is no option to start periodically rollouts on cron job. I suppose, you could implement such by yourself.
2. Rollouts do not support new devices at the moment. The only option you have is auto assignment. There are plans to extend rollouts with dynamic rollouts - to run as mix of rollouts and auto assignments. This would provide option to involve new devices. The checks for new devices would run on scheduler. Nothing is implemented at the moment.
