Application Catalog Properties Dialog Box

The Application Catalog Properties Dialog box, which is opened by selecting Properties on the Catalog menu, is

used to enable the Software Repository, select its location, and create a Proxy Account that AdminStudio can use

to make modifications to the Software Repository.

Software Repository Tab

A Windows Installer package is made up of many files that are executed when the setup is run. You only import the

file into the Application Catalog, not all of the files necessary for installation. With the Software Repository,

when you import an installation package into the Application Catalog, all of the files associated with that package

are copied into the Software Repository location, a directory that you specify. This allows you to manage those

files, preventing them from getting modified or lost.

On the Software Repository tab, you can choose to Enable the Software Repository for the new Application

Catalog, and specify a Proxy Account for AdminStudio to use to make modifications to the directory path

selected as the Software Repository Location.

This tab includes the following options:
