Install Files: Uploads selected files to the ZENworks content system and then installs them to
the destination path on the managed device. The content (by default) is replicated to all primary
servers.
NOTE: Copying a file or directory copies the file or directory from one location to another
without uploading the files into the ZENworks content repository. Copying a file or directory is
described as copying without using content. When copying a file or directory, the managed
device performs the copy operation and must be able to resolve both the source and destination
paths. Also, when copying a file or directory, the file or directory is not cached on the managed
device.
Installing a file or directory uploads the file or directory to the ZENworks content repository
before it is distributed to assigned devices. Installing a file or directory is described as copying
using content. When installing a file or directory, the file or directory is cached on the managed
device.
Installing an executable file does not launch or execute the file. To launch or execute the file,
you must add a launch executable action (Launch Windows Executable, Launch Java
Application, and so forth) to the bundle. For more information, see
Appendix E, "Actions," on
page
115.
