Adding packages to a catalog group

Introduction

By adding packages to a Catalog Group they become available to clients in the form of a list of software packages which can be chosen and installed on-demand via the CapaInstaller InfoCenter
 
Adding packages to other groups is done by dragging them to the group or by use of the package buffer, but the method of adding them to a catalog group requires a different approach. It is accomplished in the property window of the package you wish to add to the catalog.


 Adding a package to a Catalog Group

  • Right-click the Package and select Package Properties
  • Select the Catalog section
  • Check Package is published to a catalog
  • The name of the package is suggested, but it can be edited.
  • Select a category in which to place the package.
  • Select whether or not everyone should be able to see the package or only those clients that have been assigned from Configuration Management.
  • Enter a description of the software, which will be available to the clients in the CapaInstaller InfoCenter
