Distributing packages from alternate download locations and Replication Shares

Distributing packages from alternate download locations and Replication Shares

You can distribute packages from alternate download locations and Replication Shares.

This distribution is useful when:

About alternate download locations

About alternate download locations

Alternate download locations are managed devices that can host the files required to distribute software from the appliance to other managed devices.

An alternate download location can be any network location that has all the files required to install a particular application. You can distribute packages from alternate download locations including a UNC address or DFS source. The CIFS and SMB protocols, Samba servers, and file server appliances are supported. You specify the location when you create a Managed Installation.

See Attach digital assets to applications and select supported operating systems.

About Replication Shares

About Replication Shares

Replication Shares are devices that keep copies of files for distribution. Replication shares are especially useful if your managed devices are deployed across multiple geographic locations.

For example, using a Replication Share, a device in New York could download files from another device at the same office, rather than downloading those files from an appliance in Los Angeles. A Replication Share is a full replication of all digital assets and is managed automatically by the appliance. Whenever a Replication Share is specified for a label, devices in that label go to the Replication Share to get files.

The KACE Agent always looks to the appliance for distribution files if no Replication Shares are specified for any label applied to a device. If the appliance uses multiple Replication Shares, the agent makes a random selection.

See Using Replication Shares.

Distributing applications to Mac OS X devices

Distributing applications to Mac OS X devices

The appliance provides various methods for distributing applications, updates, and files to Mac OS X devices.

About installers and plain packages

On Mac OS X, there is a universal installer with the usual PKG file extension. You cannot upload a PKG file directly, as these files consist of low-level directories, and web browsers cannot handle uploading entire directories.

Plain (APP) packages, which can be installed by dragging them to the Applications folder on the Mac, do not require installers. However, APP packages must be archived because they consist of low-level directories, similar to the installer packages.

You can archive installers along with plain applications. The appliance runs installers first and then copies applications into the Applications folder.

Supported package deployments on Mac OS X

The supported package deployments are PKG, APP, DMG, ZIP, TGZ, and TAR.GZ.

If you package the file as a disk image, the appliance mounts and unmounts it quietly. This section provides examples for each type of deployment. For each of these examples, you must have already uploaded the file to the appliance prior to creating the Managed Installation package. Quest recommends that you install the application on a test device. When the KACE Agent connects to the appliance, the appliance creates an inventory item and a Managed Installation package for the application.
