Software Management

Use the Software Management tools on the Operations tab to manage the catalog of software services (applications) that are available to be deployed to managed client devices. After a software service is added to the HPCA software library, end-users of the client devices can install, update, or remove software to which they are entitled by Configuring the Application Self-Service Manager.

The Software Library page lists the software services that have been published into HPCA. You can use the tools on this page to import or export software services. The import and export tools are useful for moving a software service from one HPCA server to another—for example, if you want to move a service from a test environment to a production environment

Note: To view or modify settings for a particular software service, see the Software Details Window (Operations Tab).
