Appendix B.5 Executing a job that remotely installs update data

Execute the Install package job, and remotely install the update data package to the destination group that contains only the security PCs.

Organization of this subsection
(1) Creating and executing the job
(2) Maintenance codes for job errors

(1) Creating and executing the job

To create and execute a job:

  1. From Remote Installation Manager, display the Package window and the Destination window.
  2. Drag the package data package icon displayed in the Package window and drop it on the icon of the security PC-only destination group displayed in the Destination window.
    The Define New Job dialog box is displayed.
  3. Select the Install package job, and click the OK button.
    The Create Job dialog box is displayed.
    Do not select a job other than Install package. The other jobs cannot be executed on security PCs.
  4. In the Create Job dialog box, set the items on each page.
    The setup for each page is described below.
    Page Setup description
    Job page Specify a job name.
    Destination page Confirm that the destination group that contains only the security PCs has been set. Update data cannot be remotely installed to clients except security PCs.
    Package page Confirm that the update data package has been set. Packages other than update data packages cannot be remotely installed to security PCs.
    Clicking the Change button displays the Change Installation Conditions dialog box, which allows you to change the following settings:
    • Replace existing package on the System Conditions page
    • Package expiration at the relay system on the Schedule page
    Job Distribution Attributes page This setup is unnecessary. When update data is remotely installed to security PCs, the job is always executed with the settings Do not distribute (to suspected destination), Unicast distribution, and Do not split package for distribution.
    Schedule page You can set a job execution date in the server. Even if you set a job execution date in a client, the setting is ignored.
    Client Control page This setup is unnecessary. Client control cannot be used during remote installation to security PCs.
  5. Click the Execute or Save and Execute button to execute the job.
    When the job is executed, a dialog box for checking the executed update is displayed when the security PC is started. Click the Yes button in this dialog box to restart the security PC and then start package downloading and installation.

(2) Maintenance codes for job errors

If a job to a security PC results in an error, the error cause is displayed as a maintenance code. To check the maintenance code, open the Job Execution Status window and display the Detailed Information dialog box.

The table below shows maintenance codes that may be displayed if a job results in an error because authentication could not be performed in a security PC. These maintenance codes are displayed in JP1/Software Distribution Manager versions 08-00 or later for Windows. For details about other maintenance codes, see 6.2.3 List of maintenance codes.
