Central Site Database Name

Enter the database name of the System Center 2007 Configuration Manager Server database.

Enable workstation verification?

Enables/disables the actions in the Select verification level list. Users matching one of the specified attributes will not be required to accept the EULA.

Depending on the User / Computer relationship, this will be the last user inventoried or the most logged on user.

•

Select verification level—Tells App Portal how to handle users who visit from machines that were not originally registered with App Portal. Select one of the following options:

•

Warning—Users will be prompted with a notification that they are not using the discovered machine.

•

Disallowed—Users will not be able to visit the App Portal Storefront from other machines.

Important • This field is disabled when the User / Computer relationship field is set to Use SCCM last logon user.

User / Computer relationship

Specify the user/computer relationship that App Portal needs to use by selecting one of the following options:

•

Use SCCM last logon user—The user to computer relationship will use SMS last logon user.

•

Use SCCM Primary Console Usage—Makes use of the System Center Configuration Manager / SMS SP3 feature of tracking login duration to determine primary machine usage

•

Use AD Computer Managed By—Uses the AD Computer object "Managed By" attribute to determine the primary user of the computer. This setting requires inventory of the "ManagedBy" AD attribute in System Center Configuration Manager System Discovery.

Note • When workstation verification is enabled, the user’s current computer is checked against System Center Configuration Manager to determine if this device is their primary device. Therefore, the Use SCCM last logon user is not available for workstation verification because it is not as accurate as the other methods.

Reporting Path

The full HTTP path to the System Center Configuration Manager reporting URL, including the trailing backslash. When not specified, the standard format will be used:

http://<server>/smsreporting_<site _code>/

Maximum levels for Sub Collection Evaluation

When using System Center Configuration Manager collections for conditions within App Portal, sub-collection membership can be evaluated up to the level you specify in this field. This allows you to apply an empty collection as a condition if the collection has sub-collections with the target members in those sub-collections.

Validate available DP for software requests

App Portal can impersonate a client location request for content to ensure that the computer will have access to the System Center Configuration Manager content when a request is submitted. Disabling this option may cause a request to stall in “Waiting for Content” state if the content is not available for the computer. May require the registration (Regsvr32) of the smsmsgapi.dll in Web\Bin.

Use Central Site for All Deployments

All deployments will be generated from the central site as opposed to using each primary site.

In some cases you may elect to do all your deployments from the Central Site instead of using each primary site. App Portal manages all the collections at each primary site, however if you still wish to use the Central site for all deployments select this option. Your deployment times will be subject to intra-site replication delays.

Hide sites from software publication

To hide a specific site from software publication, select the site.

Allow publication to all sites

Select this option to allow publication to all sites.

Client polling interval

Enter the client polling interval of the System Center Configuration Manager client. This value is used to calculate date and time data for email messages when explaining when a request should begin no later than.

MDT Database Name

If Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) is installed on the Central Administration Site (CAS) server, enter the database name here (such as MDT) to obtain the list of supported MDT variables for OSD.

Store OSD Packages as Computer Variables

When applications are targeted to an OS Deployment the applications can be stored on the computer object as variables. This allows for the MDT process to automatically install the applications without any further customizations. If you do not use this option you will need to obtain the applications using SQL or web service calls.

Success Status IDs

Identifies the status IDs from System Center Configuration Manager that constitute a successful installation.

Failure Status IDs

Identifies the status IDs from System Center Configuration Manager that constitute a failed installation.

Program Collection Cleanup Status IDs

Identifies the status IDs from System Center Configuration Manager where App Portal should remove the machine from the collection for requests that have Enable Collection Clean-up enabled.

Enable Rerun Advertisement for Status IDs

Identifies the status IDs from System Center Configuration Manager where App Portal should allow an advertisement to be rerun for requests that Enable Rerun is enabled.
