Create Deployment
Administrative Image
This is a customized set of installation files created by the deployment process.
It is used to install a consistent configuration of programs on each computer.
Other settings:
■ Administrative image path. Specify a shared network location where
you have Full Control permissions. Users will go to this path to install the
programs.
■ Target platform. Select either 32-bit or 64-bit to match the operating
system of the computers that will use the deployment.
■ Include only products required by this deployment
configuration. If selected, the deployment cannot be modified in the
future to include additional products. If unselected, the administrative
image will include all possible products, and the deployment can be
modified in the future in any way.
Installation Settings
■ Silent mode runs the installation in background, without user input.
IMPORTANT In silent mode, the user's computer can restart automatically
and without warning when the installation is complete.
■ A log file records installation data for each computer.
■ A network log file keeps a central record of installation data for all
computers that run the deployment. It has the same name as your
deployment, and must reside in a shared folder where users have Change
permissions, so that their computers can write to the log file.
Change Product Language
This topic does not apply to Autodesk products that provide each language
version on separate media. For these products, you must specify the product
language when purchasing, and cannot change it.
For some Autodesk products, you can select the product language at the time
of installation, using this drop-down menu on the installer:
