Environment
Novell ZENworks Application Virtualization 10
Situation
ZAV Server provides a command line interface for managing aspects of the server configuration. 2 common scenarios where command-line interface is preferred are:
- Applications of size 2GB of larger cannot be uploaded through the web interface and must be added from the command line.
- The command-line interface provides a way to automate the addition of applications to the server potentially saving time for deployments with a large number of applications.
