Updating Torizon OS on STM32MP Targets from the Torizon Cloud

1. Overview

This page describes basic principles of using the Torizion Cloud with an STM32MPx board running Torizon OS:

  • How to provision the device to the Cloud;

  • How to customize the Yocto project to automatically push the update packages to the Cloud on rebuild;

  • How to install the update packages to the device.

1.1. Reference Documentation

For detailed information, please refer to the official Toradex documentation for the Torizon Cloud:

Torizon Cloud Documentation Overview | Toradex Developer Center

1.2. Pre-requisites

To interact with the Torizon Cloud, the following pre-requirements must be met:

2. Provisioning the STM32MP board to the Cloud

Perform the following steps:

  1. Login to the Torizon Cloud. Activate the Devices menu and click + PROVISION DEVICE.

  2. Copy the command from the pop-up window.

  3. Go to the console of the STM32MP board with Torizon OS booted up on the target, paste and execute the copied command:
