What is an SMS Package?
SMS packages are the basic units that Microsoft SMS uses to distribute
software. The package is distributed remotely to client PCs where it
installs drivers or applications software.
The package includes an executable file to run the installation, as well
as the driver or application source files to install.
The HP Image Library SMS 2.0 Packages
Only the drivers, and not the HP utilities, are provided in SMS
packaged format.
The SMS packages provided by HP are not intended to cover all
possible network environments and configurations. Instead, they are
designed for installation on target PCs that have a “clean” operating
system (refer to “Preparing the Target PC” on pag e16 for a full
explanation).
Each driver on the CD-ROM is provided in its own directory. The
directory contains several files:
file: a readme file describing the main features of the package.
file: this file is the executable setup file. When run, it installs
the software component.
file: this file is used to distribute the setup file to the
target client PCs. It is a standard SMS package definition file.
file: this file contains the source code for the SMS Installer
script file used to create the package. Not all packages have this file.
file: this file contains detailed information about each
package, such as notes, version numbers, and supported platforms.
