You are the systems administrator for your company. You install Windows Essential Business Server 2008 on the network. You want to deploy a software package to all client computers by using System Center Essentials (SCE) 2007.
You want to ensure that when you deploy the software package, SCE 2007 monitors the installation status of the application.
Which type of installation file should you use?
A.
.EXE application
B.
.MSI Windows Installer application
C.
.EXE-wrapped Windows Installer application
D.
.CAB application
Explanation:
You should use an .EXE-wrapped Windows Installer application. You can deploy the following three types of installation files using System Center Essentials:
* .EXE application
* .MSI or Windows Installer application
* .EXE-wrapped Windows Installer applicationWhen you deploy an .EXE-wrapped Windows Installer application, SCE 2007 uses the Windows Installer files to monitor the installation status of the application.
You should not use an .EXE application or .MSI Windows Installer application because SCE 2007 does not monitor the installation status for these types of application.
You should not use a .CAB application because SCE 2007 does not support deployment of this type of application.
