Define a configuration package

To define a new configuration package perform the following steps:

1. On the Configuration Package List, use F11=Add. If you want to use an existing configuration package as a model, select the package and the Add like action from the context menu (or use action code  a ). The Add Configuration Package panel is displayed.

2. Enter a package name and other entry data as appropriate. The user ID and node specify the destination of the corresponding subset IODF. The name of the accessed IODF is used as default for the name of the IODF at the target system and for the Descriptor field 1 and Descriptor field 2 parameters during the Build Production IODF step, when the configuration package is transmitted (see step 5 in section Transmit a configuration package). If no value is entered for the Operating system status, Attended is assumed which means that a user has to import the subset IODF into HCD at the target system. This is done automatically if 2 (Unattended) is specified.
3. After you press ENTER, HCD displays the updated Configuration Package list.
