    Client Package Types

    Package Type
    Description
    Setup
    Select Setup to create the package as an executable file. The package installs the OfficeScan client program with the components currently available on the server. If the target computer has an earlier OfficeScan client version installed, running the executable file upgrades the client.
    Update
    Select Update to create a package that contains the components currently available on the server. The package will be created as an executable file. Use this package if there are issues updating components on a client computer.
    MSI
    Select MSI to create a package that conforms to the Microsoft Installer Package format. The package also installs the OfficeScan client program with the components currently available on the server. If the target computer has an earlier OfficeScan client version installed, running the MSI file upgrades the client.
  4. Configure the following settings (some settings are only available if you select a particular package type):
  5. Next to Source file, ensure that the location of the ofcscan.ini file is correct. To modify the path, click (icon_browse.bmp) to browse for the ofcscan.ini file. By default, this file is in the <Server installation folder>\PCCSRV folder of the OfficeScan server.
  6. In Output file, click (icon_browse.bmp), specify where you want to create the OfficeScan client package, and type the package file name (for example, ClientSetup.exe).
  7. Click Create.
    After Client Packager creates the package, the message Package created successfully appears. Locate the package in the directory that you specified in the previous step.
  8. Deploy the package.
