Package could require a reboot
Mark this if you will distribute this package with Group Distribution, and if a
restart will be required during the package's installation. When Group
Distribution creates the deployment wrapper .EXE, it inserts Pause statements
immediately following the Execute Program action that runs the package.
Package Meta Data
The Package Meta Data section contains both predefined and custom meta
data fields. To edit custom meta data, click in the Value column and enter or
select a value. If the field requires a URL, include http:// or other tag (mailto:,
ftp:, file:) so that the field will become an active hyperlink on the Package pane.
The predefined meta data is read-only. To edit predefined meta data, use the
Product Details page in Windows Installer Editor.
If no meta data values are enabled, it means that custom meta data fields have
not been defined.
See Defining Custom Meta Data Fields
With Enterprise Management Server, Security Setup determines whether you
can edit meta data in Software Manager.
4. Click the Source tab and view or edit the following information.
Installation File
Edit to change the location of the package installation file. You might need to do
this if the server is renamed or reorganized.
You also need to change the file location when you break the link to a
subscribed package.
See Breaking Links to Subscribed Packages
Note
Selecting a new file location here does not move the installation file or its source
files. You must redistribute the package installation to the new location.
Transforms and Patches applied
Lists the transforms and patches that were applied to the package in the order
in which they were applied (read-only).
