Create a Deployment
A deployment contains a Microsoft Transform (MST) file that modifies the
default behavior of the installation program.
As you begin a deployment, you need to select the location of your
administrative image, a deployment name, and if your target systems are 32-
or 64-bit operating systems.
Create a Deployment Using Default Values
This is the fastest means of creating client deployment images.
To create a default deployment using default values
1 Close all running applications on your computer and start the
Installation wizard.
2 On the Installation wizard, if required, select an alternate language
for the Installation wizard from the Installation Instructions
drop-down, and then click Create Deployment.
3 On the Configure Deployment page, Administrative Image
section, specify the following data:
a In the Deployment Configuration Name field, enter a
descriptive name for the deployment that identifies the user group,
platform, or other attribute to differentiate this deployment from
others. The name you enter here is the name of the shortcut users
will access to install the product.
b In the Administrative Image Path field, enter the path to your
existing shared network location, or use the Browse button to
navigate to that location. This area is where you create and store
your administrative image. Users install the program from this
location.
NOTE If you do not know how to create a network share, see
Create
a Network Share
(page 52).
c Under Target Platform select either 32-bit or 64-bit for your
target operating system. This selection does not identify the system
your deployment was created on; it identifies your target system.
