Deploying to offline machines

Hi,
We are having issues with deploying to offline machines. We have a lot of Amazon servers (~60) and they are not always on. We would like to be able to queue up new releases to deploy when these machines get turned on. Is this possible?

Hi,

Thanks for getting in touch! Currently this is not possible in Octopus, you can setup API scripts that will update to those machines when they come online. However within the next couple of months we are aiming to release our Elastic Environments feature which will handle this scenario.
This feature will enable you to do exactly what you want here. We have a highlight of how this feature should work in Octopus version 3.4 I will link it below.


Specifically Improved elastic environment and transient machine support in Alpha 1

Sorry if this wasn’t the answer you were looking for.

Regards,
Daniel

Thanks for the reply Daniel We will probably give the API scripts a try. Any idea with version 3.4 will be released?
