Avalanche allows you to compile files to create a new software package. Creating a package bundles files together so they can be installed together. Ensure you know the location of the files you want to include in the package.
In addition to the files, a new software package has the following options:
Title |
A title for the package. |
Vendor |
The package vendor. |
Version |
The version number of the package. |
Install Drive |
The drive on the mobile device where the package will be installed. |
Install Path |
The exact path where the package will be installed. |
Post Install Options |
Options for if the device will perform a warm boot or a cold boot after installation has completed, or if a program runs once installation is completed. When you select to run a program, the drop-down list will become active and you can select the program from your package to run. Post-install actions are optional. |

By creating selection criteria for your package, only the devices which meet the selection criteria will receive the package. When you enable Add Selection Criteria, the Selection Criteria Builder button to the left of the list is enabled. You can click it and use the Selection Criteria Builder to help you create the criteria, if desired. |
