You can update the source paths of Windows Installer applications with resilient
source paths. The updated source paths point to the package servers that you
designate. If an application needs modification or repair, Windows Installer can
access the needed installation file from one of these servers.
You can use a policy or a task to perform resilient source path updates of Windows
Installer applications on managed computers.
