Change Svs Layer Guid; Check Configuration - Symantec WISESCRIPT PACKAGE EDITOR 8.0 - REFERENCE FOR WISE PACKAGE STUDIO V1.0 Reference

Change SVS Layer GUID

Check Configuration

WiseScript Package Editor Reference
This SVS script action changes a layer's GUID.
Example: You can use this action to create a copy of a layer that is seen by SVS as a
different layer. This is similar to changing the ProductCode and PackageCode of an .MSI
file. To create a copy of a layer, create a script that imports an archive file, changes the
layer's GUID, and then exports a copy of the original archive file.
To complete the dialog box
Layer GUID
Enter the layer's GUID (globally unique identifier) or a variable that represents the
layer's GUID. If you enter the layer's GUID, do not include the { } brackets.
For information on creating a variable for a layer's GUID, see
page 144 and Find SVS Layer GUID
New Layer GUID
Enter a new GUID for the layer or a variable that represents the new GUID. If you
enter a new GUID, do not include the { } brackets.
Return variable
(Optional.) Enter a name for the return variable. When this script action runs
successfully, either 0 or 1 is placed in this variable.

of the destination computer. As a result of this check, the action can display a message,
halt the installation after displaying a message, or start a conditional block.
When a WiseScript is called by a Windows Installer installation, you can also check
