This section describes ZENworks Application Virtualization Startup and Bundle Publishing
features. All options described in this section can be found in the
ZENworks
panel.
6.8.1
ZENworks Startup
Virtual applications built with ZENworks Application Virtualization can be configured to require
the ZENworks Configuration Management Agent to be installed on the host device executing the
virtual application. By default, virtual applications built with ZENworks Application
Virtualization do not require the ZENworks Configuration Management Agent.
To require the ZENworks Configuration Management Agent to be installed on the host system,
check the
Require ZENworks Configuration Management Agent to be installed on
workstation executing the virtual application
checkbox in the
ZENworks
panel.
When virtual applications built with ZENworks Application Virtualization require the ZENworks
Configuration Management Agent to be installed, they can also be configured to restrict execution
to a specific ZENworks Configuration Management Zone.
To restrict virtual application execution to a specific ZENworks Configuration Management Zone,
check the
Only allow devices registered in specific zone to execute the application
checkbox in
the
ZENworks
panel. When prompted, enter
the
ZENworks Server Address
, click
Connect
,
enter the appropriate
Username
and
Password
, and click
OK
.
When specifying the
ZENworks Server Address
, it is necessary to use the secure HTTP prefix
(
https://
) in order to connect to a secure ZENworks Configuration Management Server.
When specifying the
ZENworks Server Address
, you must also use a port number suffix
(e.g.
:81
) if the ZENworks Configuration Management Server has been configured to use a custom
port number.
6.8.2
ZENworks Bundle Publishing
ZENworks Application Virtualization can publish virtual application bundles directly to a
ZENworks Configuration Management Zone. Note that if a virtual application has been built with
ZENworks Configuration Management Zone restriction, the application will not execute on
devices outside of the restricted zone.
To manually publish a virtual application bundle directly to a ZENworks Configuration
Management Zone:
•
Select
MSI
or
Executable
for the
Project Type
. The MSI or Executable must be built
before publication can occur.
•
Click
Select Zone
under the
ZENworks Bundle Publishing
pane.
•
When prompted, enter the
ZENworks Server Address
and click
Connect
.
•
Log in to the ZENworks Server with the appropriate
Username
and
Password
and click
OK
.
