methods of installation. The shared folder (network share) is created before you
run the installation wizard and is where product deployments are stored.
Shared folders are required for multi-seat stand-alone methods of installation.
The shared folder (network share) is created before you run the installation
wizard and is where product deployments are stored.
It is recommended that you name the network share folder Deployments on
the desktop of the system where you want deployments stored. You can then
add subfolders inside the shared Deployments folder that clearly convey the
names of products you plan to deploy. For example, any subfolders that are
placed inside a shared folder are automatically shared.
TIP You must have Full Control permissions set for your shared folder when you
are creating your deployment images. Read permissions are necessary to access
the network share and administrative permissions on the workstation where the
program is deployed.
What are RSS feeds and how do they benefit my installation?
An RSS feed is a live link you initiate by subscribing to someones website.
Once subscribed, the primary benefit is a constantly updating stream of content
that is delivered to your system in the form of summarized articles, forum
threads, blog posts, and so on. RSS stands for Rich Site Summary (or Really
Simple Syndication).
Networking Issues
This section outlines common issues and their solutions with regards to
performing a network installation or configuring your network license server(s).
Where do I find my server name?
When installing a network licensed product, you must specify the name of
the server that will run the Network License Manager. If you dont know the
server name, you can quickly find it by opening a Windows command prompt
on the system that will be the Network License Manager. At the prompt, enter
ipconfig /all and note the Host Name entry.
