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 21).
NOTE Distribution of DirectX 9.0C to Windows XP by SCCM is not supported.
For an Autodesk product to run properly, you must manually install DirectX 9.0C
from the product media (<media>\3rdParty\DirectX\DXSETUP.exe). This version
of DirectX 9.0C is customized for use with Autodesk products.
Set Up a Source Directory for SCCM
When you use SCCM to deploy Autodesk products, you set up the source
directory using the Create Deployment process in the installer.
The Create Deployment process creates an administrative image that is used
by SCCM to distribute the Autodesk products to the target systems. The
location of the administrative image is the package source directory.
To learn more about deployments and setting up the source directory for
Autodesk software, see Understanding Deployments (page 1).
NOTE Before trying to configure SCCM to deploy the product, it is recommended
that you test your deployment to ensure that it can install the product successfully.
To test your deployment
1 Log on to a Windows computer as a user who has administrative
privileges.
2 Navigate to the source directory where your administrative image was
created.
3 Double-click the deployment shortcut created by the deployment process.
The program is either installed, or error information is written to the
log file at %temp%.
Create the SCCM Software Installation Package
After creating the source directory using the deployment process, you create
the SCCM software installation package. An SCCM package contains the files
and instructions that SCCM uses to distribute the software and advertise the
