Set Up a Source Directory Using the Deployment Wizard

When you use SCCM to deploy Autodesk software, you set up the source directory using the Deployment wizard.

The Deployment wizard creates an administrative image that is used by SCCM to distribute the Autodesk software to the target systems. The location where you perform the administrative installation becomes the location of the package source directory.

To learn more about deployments and setting up the source directory for Autodesk software, see the following topics in the Network Administrator’s Guide:

• Preliminary Tasks for a Network Deployment
• Create a Deployment
• Use the Installation Wizard to Set Up a Deployment
• Modify a Deployment (optional)

To test the Deployment wizard deployment

1. Log on to a Windows XP Professional or Vista workstation as a user who has administrative privileges.
2. Navigate to the source directory where your deployment was created.
3. Double-click the deployment shortcut created by the Deployment wizard.

   The program will either be installed or error information will be written to the log file at %temp%.
