Caching an Application

Applications are not cached by default. If you want to enable a user to install or verify an application while disconnected from eDirectory, you must configure the application to be cached.

1. In ConsoleOne^®, right-click the Application object, then click Properties.

2. Click the Associations tab to display the Associations page.

   
   

3. In the Associations list, select the Force Cache box for the user whose workstation you want to cache the application to.

   NOTE:  In order to cache an application, it must be marked as Disconnectable. If the application is not marked as Disconnectable, the Force Cache option is not available. For instructions, see Configuring Applications as Disconnectable.

   If you select the Distribute Always option and a remote connection is detected, ZENworks behaves as if the Force Cache and Check Point Restart options are enabled (even if you did not enable these options when you configured the Application object).

4. Click OK to save the changes.

The same task can be accomplished through the ZENworks tab > Applications page on a User, Workstation, Group, Workstation Group, or container object.
