Stage and Distribute Wizard
The Stage and Distribute wizard creates rollout jobs. Rollout jobs distribute
Dell Update Packages (DUPs) to managed systems. This wizard automatically
filters targets to install only DUPs on applicable systems.
Select the server to be updated under one target only in case of Windows
servers that support both Altiris Agent and Lifecycle Controller enabled
patching. For example, To apply DUPs or a bundle using Altiris Agent
enabled patch updates for a Windows server, then the server needs to be
added to the Windows target only.
Update options are based on the target selected:
•The Windows Targets option is available when a Windows DUP or bundle
is selected from the report.
•The
Linux Targets option is available when a Linux DUP or bundle is
selected from the report.
•The
Lifecycle Controller Enabled Targets option is available when a
Windows DUP or bundle, or both; or a Rollback update is selected from
the report.
