7 On the Product Information page, select your license type, and enter
your serial number and product key. If this data is valid, green check
marks appear.
8 If you are sure that the product information is correct, click Next.
9 On the Create Deployment Configuration page, select the products to
include in the deployment.
10 If you need to configure settings for a product, click the product name
to open the configuration panel where you can review and change
settings.
IMPORTANT The configuration settings you choose apply to every instance
of the product installed from the deployment. After the deployment is
created, these settings can be changed only by modifying the deployment.
Configuration settings vary widely by product. For more information,
see the Installation Help supplement for the product.
11 Click Create to create the deployment.
After the deployment is created, the Deployment Configuration Complete
page opens, showing the path to the new deployment and a link for
registering products online.
12 After you have finished using this screen, click Finish.
Create a Combined 32- and 64-bit Deployment
If you are deploying products on a network that includes both 32- and 64-bit
computers, consider creating a combined deployment that detects the
computer type and delivers the matching deployment. You must first create
separate 32- and 64-bit deployments before you create the combined
deployment.
IMPORTANT Before starting this procedure, ensure that all products in the
deployment support 32-bit operating systems.
To create a combined deployment
1 Create separate 32- and 64-bit deployments from the product installers
and store them in the same deployment folder. Include either '32' or '64'
in the deployment name to clearly designate the type.
2 In the deployment Tools folder, double-click the CombineDeploy.exe
tool.
