Deploying software throughout your organization

Deploying software throughout your organization

Software Installation policy uses either Windows Installer Packages (.msi) or ZAW Down-Level Application Packages (.zap). When you use computer assignment, user assignment, or user publishing, you can deploy software by using Windows Installer Packages. When you use user publishing, you can deploy software by using either Windows Installer Packages or ZAW Down-Level Application Packages. With either technique, you must set file permissions on the installer package so that the appropriate computer and user accounts have read access.

Because Software Installation policy is applied only during foreground processing of policy settings, per-computer application deployments are processed at startup and per-user application deployments are processed at logon. You can customize installation by using transform (.mst) files. Transform files modify the installation process according to the settings you defined for specific computers and users.

You can deploy software by following these steps:

1. In the GPMC, press and hold or right-click the GPO you want to use for the deployment, and then tap or click Edit.

2. In the policy editor, open Computer ConfigurationPoliciesSoftware SettingsSoftware Installation or User ConfigurationPoliciesSoftware SettingsSoftware Installation as appropriate for the type of software deployment.

3. Press and hold or right-click Software Installation. On the shortcut menu, tap or click New, and then tap or click Package.

4. In the Open dialog box, go to the network share where your package is located, tap or click the package to select it, and then tap or click Open.

NOTE Windows Installer Packages (.msi) is selected by default in the Files Of Type list. If you are performing a user publishing deployment, you can also choose ZAW Down-Level Application Packages (.zap) as the file type.

5. In the Deploy Software dialog box, shown in Figure 6–5, select one of the following deployment methods, and then tap or click OK:

? Published To publish the application without modifications

? Assigned To assign the application without modifications

? Advanced To deploy the application by using advanced configuration options
