Schedule Type
Relative to Refresh
The Deploy and install at separate scheduled times option is not set by default. In most
situations, there is no need to deploy and install packages inside bundles at different times.
You can, depending on your needs, schedule deployment and installation at different times
to conserve network bandwidth or to perform the actions at more convenient times for
users.
The deployment schedule determines when the packages and files inside the bundle are
downloaded from the server to the assigned devices. The packages and files are not yet
installed and available for use. The installation schedule determines when the packages
and files are installed on assigned devices so the packages will be available for use.
Deploy and update immediately (when this wizard completes): Select this option to
specify that the packages inside the bundle group deploy and install immediately when the
Create New Group Wizard completes, providing that the assigned devices are online. The
packages inside the bundle group deploy to and install on devices that are not online when
they refresh.

Description
Schedule when the bundle is installed, either immediately after
the device refreshes or a specified amount of time after the
device refreshes. You can also specify whether the bundle's
installation is repeated and specify a time period when you do
