4.11 Flow of user-initiated installation of applications on smart devices
If you define applications registered in JP1/ITDM2 - SDM as applications that can be installed by users, users can install those applications at any time they choose.
The following describes the flow of user-initiated installation of applications on a smart device:
-
To avoid placing too heavy a load on the network, consider limiting the maximum number of applications that can be downloaded simultaneously.
-
Select applications in accordance with the organization's security principles.
-
Register the applications to be distributed in JP1/ITDM2 - SDM.
-
Place the applications to be distributed on the communication server.
- Note
-
This step is unnecessary if you are using simple distribution.
-
Define applications as installable by users.
-
Notify the users by email or other methods that those applications can be installed.
Notify the user of the following information:
-
Application name
-
Version
-
-
The user installs the applications at a time of his or her choosing.
- Tip
-
Use the iOS Application view or the sdmexportdistributestatus command to check the applications that have been distributed and those that are installed.
-
As needed, use email or other methods to notify users of smart devices without certain software installed that they need to install that software.
