Policy Manager Console displays the
information for the selected products. It is possible to include any number of custom autoregistration
properties to the installation package. A host will add these custom properties to the autoregistration
message it sends to the Policy Manager after local installation. These customer-specific properties will

property name will be the column name, and the value will be presented as a cell value.
One example of how to utilize custom properties is to create a separate installation package for different
organizational units, which should be grouped under unit-specific policy domains. The property name
could be Unit and the value is different in each installation package. Now hosts from each unit can be
distinguished in the autoregistration view, and using the column sorting and multiple selection all the hosts
from one unit can be imported to their target domain. Note that the target domain can be changed directly

11. You can install the exported JAR to the hosts by running the ilaunchr.exe tool.
The ilaunchr.exe tool is located in the Policy Manager Console installation directory under the
...\Administrator\Bin directory. To do this:
a) Copy ilaunchr.exe and the exported JAR to a location where the login script can access them.
b) Enter the command:ilaunchr <package name>.jar where <package name> is replaced by the
actual name of the JAR package being installed.
When the installation runs, the user will see a dialog displaying the installation progress. If a restart is
required after the installation, the user is prompted to restart the computer as defined when the
installation package was exported. If you want the installation to run in silent mode, enter the command
in format:ilaunchr <package name>.jar /Q. Also in this case the user may be prompted to
restart the computer after the installation, and if a fatal error occurs during the installation, a message
is displayed.
