About Installation Expert
Use the Data Layers page to add a data layer to an application layer so that they can be
installed together by the application layer's .VSA file. Example: If you created a data
layer to capture all .DOC and .XLS files, you could add this layer to a Microsoft Office
application layer so that they are deployed together to client computers.
See
About Data Layers
on page 11.
You can add a data layer to a virtual software project file (.WVP) only. You cannot add it
to a virtual software archive file (.VSA) or virtual software layer. If you create a .WVP file
that contains a data layer and then open its .VSA file, the Data Layers page does not
appear.
Before you can add a data layer to an application layer, you must create the data layer.
The data layer must be in the .VSA format.
See
Creating a Data Layer
When you compile a .WVP file that contains one or more data layers, an .EXE file with
the same name is created in addition to the .VSA. You must use the .EXE file to
distribute the layer. When the .EXE runs, it creates the application layer and all the data
layers. Each layer appears in the Altiris SVS applet.

About the Altiris SVS Applet
