Automatic Client Upgrades
The MageUI manifest file is used to create automatic upgrades for System Manager clients.
| This procedure can also be used to upgrade the EnvisionSwitch.application. |
Automatic upgrades for newer versions of client applications are created in two steps:
-
Share the Dynalite System Manager folder among users.
-
Specify the file share location in the MageUI manifest file.
-
Right click on the Dynalite System Suite folder and select Share with > Specific people or Give access to > Specific People.
-
Select the users (with whom the folder needs to be shared) from the dropdown list and click the Add button.
-
Click the Share button to share the folder amongst selected users.
ClickOnce deployment using the MageUI Manifest file
ClickOnce deployment enables you to publish Windows-based applications to a Web server or network file share for simplified installation.
-
Navigate to the C:\Dynalite\System Manager\System Manager Client folder.
-
Run the mageui.exe file.
-
Select File, Open and open the EnvisionManagerClient.application file.
-
The application file is opened in mageui.
-
Select Deployment Options.
-
The Start Location in the Deployment options is the file share location where the System Manager client versions are placed.
The default location is
\\ServerName\Dynalite\System Manager\System Manager Client\EnvisionManagerClient.application
In case a different file share location must be shared, the path of the file share location must be specified in the Start Location field.
-
Select File > Save.
