The Action - Launch URL dialog box lets you specify the URL to launch on the device. You can also specify the specific requirements that a device must meet for the action to be executed on the device.
To access this dialog box in ZENworks Control Center, click the Bundles tab. Click the underlined link of a bundle in the Name column of the Bundles list, click the Actions tab, click one of the action set tabs (Distribute, Install, Launch, Repair, Uninstall, Terminate, or Preboot), click the Add drop-down list, then select an available action.
NOTE:When you create a bundle and select the Launch URL action, then assign the bundle to a device, each action launches the URL in a new tab in the same window.
In a whitelisted environment, the Launch URL action might not work as expected. By default, the whitelisting feature is disabled for the Launch URL action. To enable the Launch URL action to work in a whitelisted environment, you need to add a registry String value named UseShellExecute,to HKLM\Software\Novell\ZCM\AgentSettings, and set the value data to false. However, when the whitelisting feature is enabled, the action launches the URL in a new browser window instead of a new tab.
The following sections contains additional information:
The General page lets you specify the URL to launch on the device. Click Test URL to open a Web browser to verify that the URL is correct.
The Requirements page lets you define specific requirements that a device must meet for the action to be enforced on it. For information about the requirements, see Requirements.
