Adding client installation package updates
You receive client installation package updates from Symantec, and then you add them to the site database to make them available for distribution from Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager. You can optionally export the packages during this procedure to make the package available for deployment to computers that do not contain client software.
About adding client installation package updates and upgrading clients
Note:
An installation package that you import consists of two files. One file is named product_name.dat, and the other file is named product_name.info.
To add a client installation package update
Copy the package to a directory on the computer that runs the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager.
In the console, click Admin, and then click Install Packages.
In the Add Client Install Package dialog box, type a name and a description for the package.
In the Select Folder dialog box, locate and select the product_name.info file for the new package, and then click Select.
When the Completed successfully prompt appears, do one of the following:
In the Select Export Folder dialog box, browse to and select the directory to contain the exported package, and then click OK.
In the Export Package dialog box, select a group, and then set the other options according to your installation goals.
