Using Virtual Applications with
ZENworks Configuration
Management
If you use Novell
®
ZENworks
®
Configuration Management in your environment, you can control
how virtual application are used and you can create and publish ZENworks bundles used to
distribute virtual applications to users.
The following sections contain more information:
Section 5.1, “ZENworks Startup Options,” on page 25
Section 5.2, “ZENworks Bundle Publishing,” on page 26
5.1 ZENworks Startup Options
ZENworks Application Virtualization can be configured to require the ZENworks Adaptive 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 Adaptive Agent.
To configure the ZENworks Startup options:
1
While configuring the virtual application, click the
ZENworks
button on the left side of the
ZENworks Application Virtualization console to display the ZENworks Startup settings.
2
Select the
Require ZENworks Configuration Management Agent to be installed on workstation
executing the virtual application
check box.
The ZENworks Adaptive Agent is part of the ZENworks Configuration Management software
that is installed on each managed device to let the ZENworks administrator manage devices
over the network.
If the ZENworks Adaptive Agent is not installed on the device attempting to launch the virtual
application, it cannot be launched.
3
(Conditional) Select the
Only allow devices registered in specified zone to execute the
application
check box, click
Select Zone,
specify the ZENworks Server Address and the Zone,
then click
OK
.
The Management Zone is the management domain that includes the ZENworks Primary
Servers and managed devices in your ZENworks system.
When specifying the ZENworks Server Address, you might need to use the secure HTTP prefix
(
https://
) to connect to a secure ZENworks Configuration Management Server. If the
ZENworks Configuration Management Server has been configured to use a custom port
number, you might need to use a port number suffix (:81).
