Novell ZENworks Application Virtualization
7.6 Deploying virtual applications to ZENworks Configuration
Management
This section describes ZENworks Application Virtualization Startup and Bundle Publishing features. All options
described in this section can be found in the ZENworks panel.
ZENworks Startup
ZENworks Application Virtualization can be configured to require the ZENworks Configuration Management
Agent to be installed on the host device executing the virtual application. By default, virtual applications built
with ZENworks Application Virtualization do not require the ZENworks Configuration Management Agent.
To require the ZENworks Configuration Management Agent to be installed on the host system, select Require
ZENworks Configuration Management Agent to be installed on workstation executing the virtual
application from the ZENworks panel.
When virtual applications built with ZENworks Application Virtualization require the ZENworks Configuration
Management Agent to be installed, they can also be limited to only allow execution in a specific ZENworks
Configuration Management Zone.
To only allow execution in a specific ZENworks Configuration Management Zone, select Only allow devices
registered in specific zone to execute the application from the ZENworks panel. When prompted, enter
the ZENworks Server Address, click Connect, enter the appropriate Username and Password, and click
OK.
When specifying the ZENworks Server Address, it may be necessary to use the secure HTTP prefix
(https://) to connect to a secure ZENworks Configuration Management Server.
When specifying the ZENworks Server Address, it may be necessary to use a port number suffix (:81) if the
ZENworks Configuration Management Server has been configured to use a custom port number.
ZENworks Bundle Publishing
ZENworks Application Virtualization can publish virtual applications directly to a ZENworks Configuration
Management Zone Bundle.
To publish a virtual application directly to a ZENworks Configuration Management Zone Bundle,
1. Select MSI or Executable for the Project Type. The MSI or Executable will need to be built before
publication.
2. Click Select Zone under the ZENworks Bundle Publishing pane.
3. When prompted, enter the ZENworks Server Address and click Connect.
4. Log in to the ZENworks Server with the appropriate Username and Password and click OK.
5. Assign a Bundle Name.
6. Assign a Bundle Folder. The Bundle Folder is the location in the bundle hierarchy where the bundle will
be published.
7. Assign a Destination Path. The Destination Path is the location on the host system where the bundle will
be installed and must be resolvable by the host system. This option will only be available if the Project Type
is Executable.
8. Click Publish Now to publish the bundle to the ZENworks Configuration Management Zone.
Additional options:
To change the credentials used to publish the bundle, click the Change Credentials button and enter
the new credentials.
