1 Application Deployment in SCCM 2012 This document is explained about new concept of software distribution process in SCCM 2012 SP1.This time Microsoft have started coding part in order to accomplish distribution in an effective and efficient manner. Below are the important changes in SCCM 2012 SP1 1. Traditional advertisement option have replaced with Deploy 2. A Help desk website has introduced with client for browse and request application 3. More installation properties can be set with application package. Following is the methods to create application type and deploy into a windows 8 machine Package still it s there with almost features in sccm 2007.Right click on application and select create application.

2 2. Support below files for software distribution.exe.msi.cab.appv.appx.xap Windows Phone Package.IPA.APK APPSTORE NOKIA.SIS MAC OS X

3 3. Selected the installation files

4 4. Automatically set the installation command line for execution. Installation behavior is an advanced option in SCCM 2012 because this time SCCM more focus on user level. We can modify the command line if required.select for user

5 This wizard complete. This is the simple method don t have more configuration If we want more advanced installation property please start the application creation as below

6 2. Select second option manually configures. 3. Select below

7 4. Because we need to configure more option for the deployment that facilitate our distribution. And Mention who this the responsible person for application creation

8 5. This is related to how the deploy app appear in the application cataloge for user.not explain each and every option

9 New concept in SCCM 2012 Deployment Type will know more later Click on add

10 Don t confuse these windows with initially appeared!! Click manually specify the deployment type

11 These all I think you can understand by reading itself. Here installation & Uninstallation command in same place!!.no more required to create separate programs for both Allow clients to share is utilizing Branch cache of the windows 7/8 operating system can eliminate more DP in branch office.

12 We can detect the presence of the application in the targeted machine!! Click on add clause (For an example)

13

14 I am going to check whether the folder c:\programfile (x86)\open is existing or not If it exists application will install because app have already installed. It will not try again

15 Select install for user

16 Click on add

17 Here we can configure the deployment that the client machine should be windows8 otherwise application should not install in the client.there is lot of other option is there in category.

18 If applications have any dependencies then here need to configure. In SCCM 2012 we can assign multiple dependencies not like single one in sccm Now one application deployment type have created

19

20 Now application is ready for deploy Before that we will create a user and collection for the deployment

21 We have a collection open mobile and a user is there in the collection named user1 Planning to deploy this application to user1 Application is ready for the deployment click on Deploy at top of the ribbon

22

23 Click any of the Deploy button Point out the collection where going to Deploy.if dependency is there it will automatically distribute the content to distribution point.

24 Specify to which DP application need to upload

25 Select Install Require administrator approval also a beautiful option added in the SCCM 2012.User need to request for the approval for installation in application cataloge.

26 There is available and required option.if we choose available then application will be visible to user in application cataloge and user can install when request is approved by administrator from SCCM server. If required means it will be mandatory application it will install in client automatically Whenever we choose required approval option will not be ask

27 This is our setting here

28 Scheduling the application deployment

29 Display and notification in client machine

30 Configuration With operation manger

31 Completion window

32 Now log into a machine with user name user1 and launch the software cataloge Click on Request for approval Administrator is approving the request

33 After got approval install button will be enable Click on install Click on yes button it will start the installation

34 When we come to start menu application shortcut will be installed

35 After got installed it will be display in software center of the client machine Conclusion SCCM 2012 have improved lot by adding the option Deployement Type.There is sccm administrators can set other application properties rather than create a package and bring them into client machine and just execute the exe file. Using these advanced option software distribution time will be less and issues can be reduced. There are no possibilities to deploy application into wrong user. ====================================================================================
