When you run the application on the \uicontrol {Embedded Linux} device,

\QC deploys the application as specified by the deploy steps. By default,

\QC copies the application files to the device by using the SSH file

transfer protocol (SFTP), as specified by the \uicontrol {Upload files via SFTP}

If you have a lot of data to copy, select \uicontrol Details in the
|

\uicontrol {Upload Files via SFTP} step, and then select the
|
||||
\uicontrol {Incremental deployment} check box. \QC takes note of the deployment
|
||||
time and only copies files that have changed since the last deployment.
|
||||
However, when you make major changes on the device, such as removing files
|
||||
from the device manually or flashing a new disk image, or when you use
|
||||
another device with the same IP address, deselect the check box once, to
|

have \QC deploy all files again.

The \uicontrol {Deploy tarball via SFTP upload} step specifies that \QC

uploads the tarball to the device and extracts it.

The \uicontrol {Check for free disk space} step is by default the first deploy step.

Use it to find out whether the remote file system has enough space left to deploy your project.

Errors due to lack of disk space can otherwise be hard to detect.

\note If the SFTP upload fails, make sure that the remote device has

SFTP enabled in its SSH daemon. Some versions of Dropbear that come

without SFTP support will crash when an SFTP upload is being attempted.
