Selecting a Global Site

The Global Site stores the Package Distribution Definitions, which are used by the Distribute Software operation to control how software packages are installed on Client PCs. When you add or edit the Package Definitions using the Edit Distribution Definitions operation, the modifications are saved in the Global Site.

Use the Global Site dialog to select a new Global database.

To change the Global Site:

1    In the Enterprise Management folder, click Global Site. The Global Site dialog is displayed.

2    In the Global site list, select the database you want to use as the Global Site.

3    Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.

Note

When you create a new Global Site, it contains only the standard definitions supplied with Vector AM. You can copy new or changed definitions to the new Global Site, using the Package Definition Editor’s export and import features.
