Deploy an Application Pack

Follow these steps to deploy an Application Pack over the network from the SmartDeploy Console.


 Start the Application Deployment

  1. In the Computer Management workspace of the SmartDeploy Console, identify one or more computers that you want to deploy your application to.
    Note: Clients that appear in the Computer Management workspace in gray or faded text indicate that the device is off or there's another issue preventing a full connection between the console host and client. Deployments won't work when clients are in this state. Please see the Advanced Configuration and Troubleshooting section for more information.
  2. Click to select the client(s) that you want to deploy to, and then click Deploy | Application.
    You can click on a single endpoint and then use Ctrl-click (for multiple, specific computers), Shift-click (for a range of computers), or Ctrl-A (to Select All), and you will be able to perform any action that can be performed on multiple endpoints simultaneously. 
  3. Select Local Network or Cloud Network for the source of the Application Deployment, and then click Next.
  4. In the Application Pack window, select the Application Pack that you want to install, and then click the right arrow to add it to the install list.
  5. (Optional) If you want to allow the end user to delay installation if needed, click the Allow User To Defer Deployment check box.
  6. (Optional) If you want the installation to occur at a specific time, click the Schedule Deployment check box, and then specify a date and time.
  7. Specify an account with access to the location of the Application Packs.
    Note that this account must be able to access the Application Pack using an administrative share path, e.g.:
    \\computername\c$\SmartDeploy\Application Packs
  8. Click Finish to start the deployment, and then click OK when you are prompted to confirm.
  9. When the application deployment starts, the deployment notification icon is displayed next to the client.
