# Fleet management

> Manage your fleet of NOVA OS instances from NOVA Cloud. NOVA Cloud provides a centralized dashboard to manage all your NOVA OS instances.

### Dashboard overview

The fleet dashboard shows:

- **Instance Status**: Online, offline, or error states
- **Software Version**: Current NOVA OS version on each instance
- **Location**: Physical location tags for each instance
- **Metrics**: Key production metrics at a glance

### Grouping instances

Organize your fleet by creating groups:

- By location (e.g., "Factory A", "Factory B")
- By function (e.g., "Assembly", "Welding")
- By project or customer

### Remote actions

From the dashboard, you can:

1. **Restart** an instance remotely
2. **Deploy updates** to one or multiple instances
3. **View logs** for troubleshooting
4. **Configure settings** without physical access
