Parallels Mac Management Features
Specify Detection Method
The Detection Method tab page allows to specify how Configuration Manager determines whether
this deployment type is already present on a Mac. This information is automatically imported when
you convert the OS X installation image to a .cmmac file.You can modify the imported information,
if needed, by editing the existing clause or creating a new one.
To modify or create a clause:
3 On the Detection Method tab page, select the existing clause and click Edit Clause (or click
Add Clause).
4 Select the Setting Type. The available options are Application Bundle and Package ID:
• For Application Bundle, specify Application bundle ID, Data Type (String or Version),
Operator, and Value.
• For Package ID, specify Package ID, Operator, and Value.
5 Click OK to save the changes and close the dialog.
Specify System Requirements
The Requirements tab page allows you to specify system requirements that must be met to allow
the application to be installed. The only requirement that can be currently specified is the OS X
version.
To specify the OS X version requirement:
1 On the Requirements tab page, click the Add button.
2 In the Category drop-down list, select Device.
3 In the Condition list, select Operating system.
4 In the OS X tree, select one or more OS X versions. If you check Select all, all existing and all
future OS X versions will satisfy the requirement.
5 Click OK to save the changes and close the dialog.
