ANDBOX MERGE
Sandbox merge allows sandbox content and settings generated during virtual application execution
to be applied to a ZENworks Application Virtualization configuration. Sandbox merge is an
alternative to manual registry or filesystem configuration, and is particularly useful for applying
additional customizations to existing virtual application configurations or configurations generated
from a virtual application template.
To merge an existing sandbox into the active configuration:
Click the Sandbox Merge button in the Tools section of the Virtual Application toolbar.
•
Enter the path of the sandbox to be merged into the current configuration.
•
Click OK.
For example, to customize the home page of the Firefox virtual application template:
•
Use the Configuration Wizard to create a Firefox virtual application. (The wizard
allows customization of the home page, but we will later use the sandbox merge feature
to override the setting specified in the wizard.)
•
Press Build and Run to launch the virtualized Firefox application.
•
Using the Firefox interface, specify a new browser home page.
•
Exit the Firefox virtual application.
•
Press Sandbox Merge to display the sandbox merge dialog. The sandbox path will be
pre-populated with the location of the Firefox virtual sandbox.
•
Click OK.
The virtual application settings are updated with the configuration changes made during Firefox
execution, including the updated browser home page.
