You can use a mobile device profile to change settings on your mobile devices, as well as add, change, and remove custom properties and registry keys.
A mobile device profile has the following general options:
|
Enabled |
Enables or disables the profile. |
|
Home location |
Sets the home location for the profile. |
|
Mobile device selection criteria |
Determines which devices the profile is applied to. For information on selection criteria, see Using Selection Criteria. |
|
Orphan Package Removal |
Removes packages that have been orphaned from the device. A package is considered orphaned if it has been deleted from the Avalanche Console, if the software profile it belongs to has been disabled, or if the package has been disabled. Orphaned packages must be listed by name. Orphaned packages must be listed by name. Orphan package removal will only happen once, when the profile is first applied. |
|
Notes |
Any notes for the profile. |
|
Set Server Address |
Specifies the address of a specific mobile device server you want the devices to connect to. |
|
Enable SMS Notification |
Allows SMS messages to be sent to the device from the Avalanche Console. |
|
Force Package Synchronization |
Synchronizes each file of each package on the device without checking the meta-file, which provides information about the state of the files. When the option is not enabled, the server checks the meta-file, and then synchronizes only the files that have been altered or do not match. |
|
Restrict simultaneous device updates |
Limits the number of devices using the profile that are allowed to update simultaneously. This may be useful if there is a particular update that will take significant bandwidth or time. Restrict how many devices receive that update at a time so that other functions aren't affected. |
|
Authorized Users |
This allows you to give a user permission for one specific profile, rather than all profiles of a specific type. Users that already have permission for the profile will not appear in the list of available users. For information about creating users and assigning permissions, see Managing User Accounts. |
The location selected when you create the profile will be the profile's home location.Other options on a mobile device profile such as custom properties, registry keys, device wipe folders, and advanced configurations are described in the following sections:
| • | Configuring Device Wipe Folders |
