Builder allows you to create a deployment package containing part of a system that is used to build and deploy reports for a system. This can include folder deployment package containing many reports (MSI) or a single-report deployment package (CAB).
DPM allows you to create a corresponding partial deployment package for the cloned instance.
To create a partial deployment package for the cloned instance, perform the following:
Go to AB Suite Installation Package/CD Runtime/Windows Runtime/Runtime Utilities/DeploymentPackageManager, and double-click DPM-GUI.exe.
The Deployment Package Manager dialog box appears.
Click Create a Partial MSI for the Existing Instance.
The Create Partial Deployment Package dialog box appears.
Specify the following in the dialog box:
In the New builder-generated Deployment Package field, select the new builder-generated partial deployment package. This can be an MSI file or a CAB file.
In the Existing Cloned Instance Deployment Package field, select the existing full-system deployment package for the cloned instance.
In the Builder-generated Package column, the package properties of the original system are displayed.
The Partial Package for Cloned Instance column is automatically populated with the existing values from the cloned instance deployment package. If required, you can update some properties with the desired values. The partial MSI is created with these property values.
Click Run.
The task status appears in the next dialog box.
A new updated partial deployment package for the cloned instance is created.
Click Exit to exit the DeploymentPackageManager dialog box.
