Deployment Checklist If your product has language options, decide which language to use for each deployment. NOTE Languages can be included when you initially create a deployment, or when you create a new deployment configuration, but not when you modify a deployment. Determine whether to create log files on individual computers, in the deployment folder, or both. Determine whether to run installations in silent mode. NOTE When products are installed in silent mode, the user's system can automatically reboot without warning when the installation is complete. Identify other applicable configuration settings such as defined search paths, locations of support files, and whether to automatically install service packs. Determine the Installation Type When you set up your deployment, you specify the installation type by target platform and license type. Target Platform Specify either a 32-bit or 64-bit platform, depending on the operating system of the computers that will use the deployment. For some Autodesk products, you can install a 32-bit version on a 64-bit operating system. For more information, consult product-specific documentation. License Type Specify one of the following license types in the installer, based on the type of license you purchased: Network License With this license type, you install the product to computers on a network, along with the files and registry entries that allow the product to communicate with the Network License Manager (NLM) on one or more Network Administration and Deployment | 3
