Deployment Issues This section outlines common issues and their solutions with regards to software deployments. Is there a checklist I can refer to when performing a deployment? The Installation chapter contains a complete section that describes preliminary actions and the entire deployment process. See "Preliminary Tasks for a Network Deployment" on page 34. Where should deployments be located? Shared folders are required for both network license and multi-seat stand-alone methods of installation. The shared folder (network share) is created before you run the Installation wizard and is where product deployments are stored. It is recommended that you name the network share folder Deployments on the desktop of the system where you want deployments stored. You can then add subfolders inside the shared Deployments folder that clearly convey the names of products you plan to deploy. For example: Any subfolders that are placed inside a shared folder are automatically shared. NOTE You must have Full Control permissions set for your shared folder when you are creating your deployment images. Read permissions are necessary to access the network share and administrative permissions on the workstation where the program is deployed. Where can I check if service packs are available for my software? To find out if a patch or Service Pack is available for your product, visit the Autodesk Product Support page at http://support.autodesk.com. How do I choose between 32-bit and 64-bit deployments? You have a choice of selecting 32-bit or 64-bit deployment. This choice controls which operating system the deployment is targeted at, NOT what sort of products to include in the deployment. ■ Selecting 32-bit deployment gives you a choice of 32-bit products, and will only install on 32-bit operating systems. ■ Selecting 64-bit deployment gives you a choice of 32-bit and 64-bit products, and will only install on 64-bit operating systems. So, for example, if you want to install 32-bit products on a 64-bit operating system, you need to choose 64-bit deployment. NOTE You can make either type of deployment from either type of operating system. What are information channels? The Communication Center allows you to receive announcements from various information channels. Through information channels, you can receive the following: ■ Product Support information, including maintenance patch notifications. 48 | Chapter 3 Installation
