Appendix A: Remote Library Index File
This appendix provides an example of the structure of an index file you can create for use in the
remote software libraries accessed by Avaya Software Update Manager.
An index file is an XML file that you create and maintain with the information of the different
software update files stored on the remote server.
When an index file is present on a remote directory, the Avaya Software Update Manager reads
the index file and displays its contents to the Avaya Software Update Manager user. This
enables the user to view information on the software update files currently stored on the remote
server. With this list, the user can determine which files to download to update the specific
devices in the network.
The following is an example of the structure of an XML index file. You can use this example and
insert the relevant information for the files stored on your remote server.
