# Redeploy Deployment Manager

In some cases, you want to redeploy Deployment Manager onto an existing device. This is most common when you find an existing device has become corrupted or you have an unrecoverable hardware failure.

Rather than doing any manual work, you can simply redeploy the device and it will fully recover all Roboflow configurations with just one step.

:warning: Please ensure that you don't redeploy manager onto a second device while the first device is still operational.

To redeploy onto a new device, visit the Deployment Manager dashboard for that device. Then open the options menu on the top-righ and click on "Redeploy Device"

Then, click on "Generate Redeploy Command" to get the install script.

Then copy the install script and execute it from a terminal on the device with elevated privileges.

:warning: Note that the install script is only active for 10 minutes and then expires. After expiration, you'd have to regenerate the install script.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.roboflow.com/deploy/device-manager/making-changes/redeploy-deployment-manager.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
