This topic describes how to configure software-distribution preferences.
Complete the following steps to configure software-distribution
preferences:
- If necessary, start IBM Director Console.
- Click .
- In the Server Preferences window, click the Software
Distribution tab.
- On the Software Distribution page, locate the Maximum
Managed Systems field and type the maximum number of managed systems
to which IBM Director Server can concurrently
stream software packages. The default value is three.
- To limit the bandwidth used to stream packages, select the Enter
streaming bandwidth (kbps) for managed systems check box. In the
entry field, type the bandwidth, in kilobytes per second (KBps), that you
want to use to stream packages from either IBM Director Server or
a file-distribution server to the managed system.
註: To specify
values less than 1 KBps, type a decimal. The minimum acceptable value is 0.25
(256 bytes per second).
- To avoid streaming a package in the event that a redirected distribution
fails, select the Do not stream distribution if redirected distribution
fails check box.
- To prevent IBM Director Server from
performing an access check of all of the file-distribution shares,
select the Restrict server access check check box.
This selection restricts the access check to only the file-distribution
shares you configure for a specific managed system or group.
- Click OK.
