Novell ZENWORKS LINUX MANAGEMENT 7.2 IR2 - ADMINISTRATION GUIDE 09-25-2008 Administration Manual page 227

As part of the process of distributing a bundle, ZENworks Linux Management can launch
scriptable actions that will be executed before and after the bundle is distributed, installed, and
uninstalled. For example, you can get data files from a Web server before installing an
application that uses them, run applications, and so forth.
NOTE: You can configure multiple scripts for each bundle. Repeat the configuration process
as many times as desired, choosing different options from the Scriptable Action and Executable
Type drop-down lists, explained below.

Pre-distribution/post-distribution: Lets you perform tasks that must be done
before or after a bundle is deployed to assigned devices. Deploying a bundle means
that the packages or files inside the bundle are downloaded from the ZENworks
server to the assigned devices. The packages and files are not yet available for use.
Pre-installation/post-installation: Lets you perform tasks that must be done before
or after a bundle is installed. Installing a bundle means that the software packages
and files are installed to assigned devices and available for use.
Pre-uninstallation/post-installation: Lets you perform tasks that must be done
before a bundle is uninstalled. Uninstalling a bundle means that the software
packages and files are uninstalled on assigned devices and no longer available for
use.
