Use the Upload Wizard if you want to store an image and Platform Packs in the cloud for deployment. SmartDeploy integrates with your existing third-party storage provider so you can deploy images to remote offices quickly. This wizard automatically creates a cloud Deployment Package and splits the contents of your image and Platform Packs for faster and more-reliable deployments.
Note: Before you continue, confirm that you've completed the steps in the Connect to Cloud Storage article.
