1. After creating a job, click Add > Manage SVS Layer.
2. Enter the .VSA file name in the Layer name drop-down list, or browse and select a
.VSA file. You can also enter a .VSA file path in the Layer name drop-down list. The
Deployment Console checks if the path entered is correct. If it finds that the file
path is correct and it is a valid .VSA file, it replaces the path name with the layer
name in the .VSA file.
Note
The console displays a list of the previously selected layers in the Layer name
drop-down list. This makes it easier for you to select a layer from the list, instead of
browsing or typing the .VSA file name again.
3. Select Import Package to import the selected layer and apply the actions present
in the Action drop-down list. The actions are:
