Administrator Guide
Manage Catalog Definitions
The Manage Catalogs page contains a list of the custom update catalogs you created. Each catalog definition contains the list
of models and operating systems that you selected for updates. You can move each catalog definition through Draft, Test, and
Production states, which are versions of the catalog definition.
Catalog definitions and versions
IT administrators can collaborate on viewing, editing, and tracking the custom catalogs. However, be sure to communicate so
you do not overwrite the work of another IT administrator.
To modify a catalog definition name or the Draft, Test, and Production states, click the Available actions icon (
) to the left of
each.
Catalog definitions
Name of catalog definition
Available actions
Lists the name of each custom catalog you create.
NOTE: Each new catalog automatically creates a Draft.
You can edit the existing Draft. However, if you select
Create Draft, the current draft is overwritten.
View Archive - options include:
● Download - allows you to download an archived
Production version.
● View - allows you to view previous Production versions of
the catalog.
Create Draft - allows you to create another Draft instance.
You can have only one Draft instance for each catalog
definition so creating a new draft overwrites the existing one.
Delete - allows you to delete a catalog definition.
Edit Definition - opens the same wizard as Create Catalog
and displays the Summary of the existing definition. You
can change the name and description or edit the model and
operating system options.
Catalog versions
The Draft, Test, and Production states are versions of the catalog definition. The Available actions icon ( ) varies for each
catalog state. You can have only one Draft, Test, and Production at a time.
