20.4 Assigning Bundles

When you create RPM bundles, file bundles, or bundle groups, you have the choice of assigning the
object as part of the creation process, or you can create the object without assigning it.
If you created the object without assigning it, the object was created without assigning devices to it,
specifying deployment and installation schedules, setting special flags, and so forth. Before the
object can be deployed and installed on assigned devices, you must complete the following steps. If
you assigned the object during its creation, you have already performed the following procedure.
1 In the ZENworks Control Center, click the Bundles tab, select the desired bundle or bundle
group in the Bundles list by clicking the box next to its name, click Action, then click Assign
Bundle to display the Devices to be Assigned page.
2 Assign the bundle or bundle group to the devices that you want to distribute the bundle or
bundle group to.
2a Click Add to browse for and select the appropriate Server or Workstation objects.
You can also select Folder or Group objects.
2b Click the down-arrow next to Servers or Workstations to expand the list, then click the
underlined link in the Name column to select the desired objects and display their names
in the Selected list box.
Assigning a bundle to a Folder or Group object is the preferred method of assigning the
bundle. Assigning the bundle to a large number of objects (for example, more than 250)
might cause increased server utilization.
