You can create a corresponding updated deployment package for an existing cloned instance of an updated deployment package (MSI) from builder for an original system. As input, you must provide the new builder-generated updated deployment package and the existing deployment package for the cloned instance. DPM merges information from both the packages to create a new updated deployment package for the cloned instance.
To update the MSI package properties, 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 an Updated Deployment Package for an Existing Cloned Instance.
The Create an Updated Deployment Package dialog box appears.
Specify the following in the dialog box:
In the Builder Generated Deployment Package field, select the new MSI file for the original system.
In the Existing Cloned Instance Deployment Package field, select the existing deployment package for the cloned instance.
In the Builder-generated Package column, the package properties of the builder-generated MSI file are displayed.
The Updated 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.
Click Run.
The task status appears in the next dialog.
A new updated deployment package for the cloned instance is created.
Click Exit to exit the DeploymentPackageManager dialog box.
