Step 4
Configuring a Source Path Update policy
You can update the source paths of Windows Installer applications with resilient
source paths by configuring a Source Path Update policy. Configuring the policy
is a step in the process of updating the source paths of Windows Installer
applications.
See
“Updating the source paths of Windows Installer applications”
on page 199.
After you configure the policy, it runs as scheduled on the specified computers
or for the specified users. If you schedule the policy to repeat, it can continue to
check and update the source paths.
See
“About source path updates for Windows Installer applications”
on page 198.
To configure a Source Path Update policy
1
In the Symantec Management Console, on the Settings menu, click All
Settings.
