Description

Application

An application that has been imported into the Application Catalog database. The application can include multiple deployment types—such as a Windows Installer package, a Microsoft App-V package, a VMware ThinApp package, etc. Each deployment type is indicated by a separate subnode of this application node.

For most applications, an icon included in the application files is used to represent it in the tree. If an application does not include an icon, this default icon is used.

In the following example, the application includes a Microsoft App-V package, a Citrix XenApp package, a VMware ThinApp package, and a Windows Installer package.

Windows Installer package

Windows Installer package (.msi) that has been imported into the Application Catalog

App-V virtual package

Microsoft App-V virtual package (.sft or .appv) that has been imported into the Application Catalog

XenApp virtual package

Citrix XenApp virtual package (.profile) that has been imported into the Application Catalog

Unresolved question overlay

An “!” overlay on an icon indicates that the package has an unresolved question with its associated files (or that one of an application’s deployment types has an unresolved question with its associated files). One or more files, transforms, or patch files associated with a package is either missing from the original import directory or its last modified date does not match the last modified date stored in the Application Catalog. When a package icon with this overlay is selected, a message appears in the view identifying the files in question and prompting you to take action to resolve the problem.

For transforms, it is either missing from the original import directory or its last modified date does not match the last modified date stored in the Application Catalog.
