Deployment Groups are used as a template to auto-attach (for Java and Node.js)and configure multiple supported agents for installation. The Deployment Group configuration is a one-time setup process applicable to any supported agent type. It can be applied to various Smart Agents to install the configured language agents.

Deployment groups are beneficial for large-scale deployments. These groups enable you to automate deployments in a declarative manner, efficiently managing deployment and configuration from a centralized location.

A deployment group allows you to set up the following from a single location:

• Deployment of agents
• Configuration of agents
• Setting up auto-attach for Java and Node.js

When creating a Deployment Group, you can enable the necessary agents along with their required configurations. Selecting a host with Smart Agent will trigger the automatic deployment of these agents. Also, a single configuration can be applied to multiple hosts with Smart Agent.
