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:

  1. To avoid placing too heavy a load on the network, consider limiting the maximum number of applications that can be downloaded simultaneously.

  2. Select applications in accordance with the organization's security principles.

  3. Register the applications to be distributed in JP1/ITDM2 - SDM.

  4. Place the applications to be distributed on the communication server.

    Note

    This step is unnecessary if you are using simple distribution.

  5. Define applications as installable by users.

  6. Notify the users by email or other methods that those applications can be installed.

    Notify the user of the following information:

    • Application name

    • Version

  7. 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.

  8. As needed, use email or other methods to notify users of smart devices without certain software installed that they need to install that software.
