Personality Packages are stored in the
Program Files\Altiris\Altiris
Agent\Agents\Deployment\Task Handler\PCTPackages
directory. This directory
contains several folders that are named with GUIDs. After you create a personality,
the package is located in one of these folders.
Deployment Solution includes templates for many common applications. It also
provides tools to help you create templates for new and custom applications.

“About deployment tasks and jobs”
