Microsoft SCCM for Deployments
Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) allows you to manage
software distribution to selected target systems through a remote process. For
more information about this topic, go to
Microsoft TechNet and search for
"System Center Configuration Manager".
Each deployment includes a folder <deployment name>\SMS_SCCM scripts,
which contains four documents to help you with SCCM deployments and
uninstalling products:
■ SMS_SCCM_ReadMe.docx
■ <deployment name>_SCCM.txt
■ Product_Uninstall_Readme.txt
■ <deployment name>_Uninstall.txt
For more information, see
Use SCCM to Uninstall Deployed Products (page
37).
NOTE Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 must be installed on each target computer
before using SCCM to distribute Autodesk products. Some products require .NET
4.5, which can be installed by the SCCM deployment.
To deploy Autodesk products with SCCM
1 Identify or create a collection of target computers to receive the software
package.
2 Create a source directory using the Create Deployment procedure in the
installer. See
Set Up a Source Directory for SCCM (page 35).
3 Create an SCCM package to deploy to your target systems, and notify
users that the software package is available. See Create the SCCM Software
Installation Package
(page 35).
