Adding Software Packages
Once you create a software profile, you must add the software packages to
that profile. Through the software profile you can configure the software
package settings and then deploy the packages to specific mobile devices.
When working in software profiles, you do not need to be in Edit Mode to
add or configure software packages. Software package configuration changes
are saved to the actual package. However, you must enter Edit Mode to
configure any other software package options.
You can add packages, copy packages that have already been added to a
different profile, or create custom software packages from the Avalanche
Console using the Add Device Software Wizard. Before you create a custom
package, ensure you know the location of all the files you want to include and
ensure that the files are valid.
Using the Add Device Software Wizard, you can also enable and configure
the added, created, or copied software package. The following instructions
provide information about adding an Avalanche package to a software
profile. For information about building a new package refer to Building New
Software Packages on page 109.
To add a software package:
1 Select the profile to which the package will belong from the Profiles List.
2 From the Software Profile Tab, click Add Package.
The Add Device Software Wizard appears.
