Description
Define the schedule on which a Managed Software Delivery policy runs.
You schedule the compliance check and the remediation check separately.
See "Schedule settings for Managed Software Delivery"
When you use the Managed Software Delivery wizard to create the policy,
you can define the schedule during the wizard.
The Software Management reports let you monitor the software deliveries.
The delivery reports provide information about the status of the software
downloads and executions. For example, the software downloads for each
computer, including the status and the download date. The compliance
reports provide information about the compliance actions and the
remediation actions.
See "Running a Software Management Solution report"
You can perform one or more advanced software delivery actions with a single
Managed Software Delivery policy. Creating a Managed Software Delivery policy
is the first step in performing an advanced software delivery.
See "Performing an advanced software delivery"
See "About advanced software deliveries"
The Managed Software Delivery wizard provides a quick way to create and
schedule a policy for a single software resource and its dependency software. We
recommend that you use the wizard because it can include any dependency
software and warn you of software associations.
When you create a Managed Software Delivery policy with the Managed Software
Delivery wizard, the policy is enabled automatically. If you do not want the policy
to be available to managed computers immediately, edit the policy and disable it.
You also might edit the policy to add information about what to deliver.
See "Editing a Managed Software Delivery policy"
The software that you deliver in this way must be defined as a software resource
in the Software Catalog. If the software resource is not defined, contact an
administrator who can edit the Software Catalog.
