Suspending or Resuming Deployment Schedules
You can suspend an active deployment schedule without discarding it and then reactivate it later when
you want to resume creating jobs based on the schedule. This allows you to turn off a schedule

Adding Configuration Versions from a Device to the Configuration Archive
The Configuration Archive is updated with a new configuration version any time a configuration is
deployed to the device or a file, including when you roll back a configuration to a device.
You can also retrieve a configuration directly from the device to add to the Configuration Archive. This
is useful when changes have been made directly to device configurations, which are called out-of-band
changes.
Note You cannot retrieve configurations from devices that are managed by AUS and that have been configured
with dynamic IP addresses.
This procedure will help you retrieve a configuration from a device and add it to the archive.
