20.12 Renaming, Copying, or Moving Bundles

Use the Edit drop-down list on the Bundles page to edit an existing object. To access the Edit drop-down list, you must select an object by clicking the check box next to the object's name in the list.

Depending on the type of object you select, you can rename, copy, or move the selected object. For example, if you select a Bundle object, you can rename, copy, and move the bundle. If you select a Bundle Group object, you can rename or move the Bundle Group object, but not copy it. If the option is dimmed, that option is not available for the selected object type.

Some actions cannot be performed on multiple objects. For example, if more than one check box is selected, the Rename option is not available from the Edit menu.

  1. In the ZENworks Control Center, click the Bundles tab.

  2. In the Bundles list, select the box next to the bundle's name, click Edit, then click an option.

    • Rename: Click Rename, type a new name for the bundle, then click OK.

      IMPORTANT:Do not rename patch bundles.

    • Copy: Click Copy, type a new name for the copy, then click OK.

      The copy option is useful to create a new bundle that is similar to an existing bundle. You can copy a bundle and then edit the new bundle's settings.

      If you create a copy of the YOU patch bundle, the copied version is converted to the RPM package bundle type. Before deploying the RPM package bundle to the device, you must remove the patch RPMs from the bundle. However, you cannot install the copied version of the YOU patch bundle if it contains only scripts.

    • Move: Click Move, choose a destination folder for the selected objects, then click OK.

    If you rename or move a bundle, its assignments are still in place and ZENworks Linux Management does not redistribute the catalog to devices because of the name or location change.
