Deploy a system module

After you export a system module configuration, use AVEVA Edge Management to add the configuration to the module and deploy it to edge devices in the field. For details on how to configure and deploy an edge module, see the AVEVA Edge Management documentation.

For modules that require secrets, use secret variables and the secret store to complete the secure transfer of secret values. Enter secret variables in configuration files as placeholders for the actual secrets and passwords. Complete the secret store configuration in AVEVA Edge Management to define values for the secret variables. AVEVA Edge Management encrypts the values and provides the Setup module secret command. After you deploy the module configuration, run the Setup module secret command in a Linux terminal on the device to replace the secret variables with the encrypted values.

After deploying the configuration, import the configuration file, including any modifications made in the field, to the corresponding system twin in CONNECT data services. This provides an accurate record of the configuration.
