You can install a software packet or can execute a command on an agent system in your network.
Follow these steps:
  1. Configure the scan areas.
    The default values must match. The values are scanned during the packaging process, such as paths and registry entries.
  2. Generate the scripts.
    When you generate software installation scripts, the reference system is scanned twice - before and after installation. The script generating function does the following tasks:
    • The current system state is saved.
    • You are asked to perform the steps to be recorded in scripts.
    • The system state for the changes to the former state is analyzed. All the changes are assigned to the software product that has been installed.
    • The product files are generated.
    • The product information is converted to scripts.
  3. If necessary, edit the scripts.
    If you use asset management, script generation is now complete. The script is copied to the path on the target computer that is specified in the Destination Path field in the Main Window.
  4. Register the script.
    Software Delivery can distribute only registered scripts.
  5. To remove the files and directories that are created during script generating process, click Remove.
    The product that has been installed during the script generation process remains installed on the reference system.
