Deployment Data Tab / Content Subtab

Property

Description

Use fallback source location for content

To enable clients to “fall back” to using an unprotected distribution point if the package is not available on a protected (preferred) distribution point, set this option to True. By default, this option is set to False.

Content location

In ConfigMgr (Formerly called as System Center Configuration Manager), the Content location is the location where a deployment type's files are located. In Application Manager, this field usually remains blank.

However, if you enter an application-specific location for publishing in this field, Distribution Wizard will not create a GUID folder and will, instead, publish the application from this location only if the source files already exist in this location. Otherwise, the source files are copied to the location specified in the Location to Publish Packages field on the Server Options > Distribution System tab of the Options dialog box, and published from there.

Deployment option when client is on fast (LAN) network

Note:App-V packages only.

Select one of the following options to specify how the client should download content when on a fast network:

Download content from distribution point and run locally—Select this option to download the content from the distribution point and run it locally.
Stream content from distribution point—Select this option for App-V packages to stream content from the distribution point.

Deployment option when client is on slow network

Select one of the following options to specify whether the client should download content when on a slow network:

Do not download content—When the client is connected within a slow or unreliable network boundary, do not download content. Select this option to save network bandwidth. (Default)
Download content from distribution point and run locally—Select this option if, when the client is connected within a slow or unreliable network boundary, you want it to download the content from the distribution point and run it locally.
Stream content from distribution point—Select this option to stream content from the distribution point.

Note:The Stream content from distribution point option is only available for App-V packages.

Enable peer-to-peer content distribution

Note:App-V packages only.

Select this option to reduce load on the network by allowing clients to download content from other clients on the network that have already downloaded and cached the content. This option utilizes Windows BrancheCache and can be used on computers running Windows Vista SP2 and later.

Allow client to share content on same subnet

Note:MSI and EXE packages only.

To reduce the load on the network by allowing clients to download content from other local clients on the network that have already downloaded and cached the content, select True.

Persist content in the client cache

To retain content in the cache on the client computer indefinitely even if it has already been run, select True.

Note:Setting this property to True will reduce the available cache space. This might cause a large deployment to fail at a later point if there is insufficient space available in the cache.

Load content to App-V cache

Note:App-V packages only.

Entire package (instead of just Feature Block 1) is loaded completely into the App-V cache prior to launch.

Uninstall content settings

Note:MSI and EXE packages only.

Select one of the following options to define the uninstallation behavior:

Same as install content - Select this option when the installation content and Uninstallation content are same.(Default)
No uninstall content - Select this option when there is no uninstallation content
Different from install content - Select this option when uninstallation content and installation content are different.

Uninstall content location

Note:MSI and EXE packages only.

Specify the network path that contains the uninstallation content.
