Abstract
Peer assisted updates can be provided in a device management environment. When it is desired to deploy an update to a group of managed devices, an update command can be sent to a first set of managed devices in the group instructing these managed devices to download the update. Once these managed devices have downloaded and installed the update, they will notify the management server. In response, the management server can instruct these managed devices to remain awake so that they may each function as a master device or repository for deploying the update to other managed devices in the group. The management server can then send update commands to the other managed devices instructing them to download the update from one of the managed devices that is now acting as a master device. This process can be repeated until all managed devices in the group have been updated.
