1. In the Autodesk NavisWorks Simulate 2009 Installation wizard, click Create Deployments.
2. On the Begin Deployment page, you need to specify the following: administrative image location and
deployment name.
In the administrative image field, enter an existing shared network location where you
want to create an administrative image, or click the Browse button to navigate to a
location where there is a shared network location. Users install the program from this
location. If you do not know how to create a network share, see “How to Create a
Network Share”.
In the deployment name field, enter the new deployment's name. The name you enter
here is the name of the shortcut your users will access to install the product.
Click Next.
3. On the Select the Products to Include in the Deployment page, choose the products you want to
deploy and click Next.
4. Review the Autodesk software license agreement for your country or region. You must accept this
agreement to proceed with the installation. Choose your country or region, click I Accept, and then
click Next.
Note:
If you do not agree to the terms of the license and want to terminate the installation, click Cancel.
5. On the Product and User Information page, enter your serial number and user information and click
Next.
Note:
The information you enter here is permanent and is displayed in the Autodesk NavisWorks
Simulate 2009 window (accessed by Help > About) on your computer. Because you can't change
this information later without uninstalling the product, make sure you enter the correct information
now.
6. On the General Deployment Settings page, choose if you want the deployment to create a network
log and/or a client log, run the client installation in silent mode, and if you want users to participate in
the Customer Involvement program.
When you choose to create a network log file, you also have to specify where the log file
is created by entering either a valid UNC (universal naming convention) path or
hard-coded path on your network. The network log file is optional.
Note:
The folder where the network log resides must be a shared folder where users who install the
program have Change permissions. Otherwise, successes or failures for user installations cannot
be written to the log file.
Choose whether you want a client log file created.
If you want to prevent users from changing installation settings when they install, select
Silent mode.
