2.1.4 Distributing through the selection of the package by the distribution-destination system user

Normally, when a package is distributed, the installation process is started regardless of the operating condition of the distribution-destination system. This can cause a problem in the system operation. To avoid this, you can allow the users at the distribution-destination systems to select whether or not to install the packages. This is called client-user selected installation. When this feature is used, even if the managing server distributes a combination of UNIX and Windows packages, the user can select and install the package applicable to the distribution-destination system.

You can specify this method only when distributing packages from JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Manager. For details on the procedure for client-user selected installation, see 2.4.2 Selecting the package to install (Send package, allow client to choose job).
