Properties installed

Properties for CSD 2.0 manage the installation status of requested software deployments and configure scheduled Discoveries.

To access CSD 2.0 properties, navigate to Client Software Distribution 2.0 > Properties. The following properties are available:

Tableau 3. Client software distribution properties
Property	Name	Description
Status check expiration interval (days). Configure the number of days the system should wait before ignoring the software installation status.	sn_csd.softwareInstallExpDay	Controls how many days the system waits before ignoring the software installation status. The default time limit for installing software is 30 days before the system stops checking the installation status of a deployment. Type: integer Default value: 30 Installation statuses are: Not installed: User has not installed requested software prior to the expiration of the configured time limit. Installed: Software was installed within the configured time limit. Status check expired: Time limit has expired for the user to install the requested software. The system no longer checks the status of this deployment. Revoked: Software was revoked by the administrator. Not Synced: Installation status is not synchronized with the status in the server. Remarque : If SAM is used along with CSD 2.0, the status is updated automatically. Else, the admin should change the status manually.
Reconcile software installation status interval (hours). Set the repeat interval for the scheduled job that determines the installation status.	sn_csd.softwareInstallIntervalHour	Determines when the scheduled job runs that determines the installation status. By default, the system checks the installation status every hour. Type: integer Default value: 24
Set scheduled application Discovery interval (days).	sn_csd.discoveryExeDay	Sets the repeat interval for the scheduled job that runs application Discovery. By default, Discovery runs at midnight on the day set with this value. Type: integer Default value: 5
Set lease execution schedule job interval (minutes)	sn_csd.lease_execution_interval	Interval in which the CSD Lease Schedule scheduled job checks for requested software leases to start, stop, or extend. Type: integer Default value: 1
Set time prior to lease end to notify requester (days).	sn_csd.lease_end_notification	Determines how many days prior to the end of a software lease to notify the requester. If lease extensions are allowed, ensure that this period provides enough time for the approval process to complete before the lease expires. Type: integer Default value: 5
Determines whether to use SAM plugin(SAM Foundation or SAM Professional) tables for managing software models and licensing information	sn_csd.useSAMPlugin	Option to use SAM plugin along with CSD 2.0 and choose SAM tables.

Flows, subflows, and actions

These flows, subflows, and actions are with the CSD 2.0 application.

Tableau 4. Flows available with CSD 2.0
Flow
Order Client Software	Schedules the installation of an ordered application on the selected device. The request requires approvals based on the user input in the catalog item configuration.
Deploy Client Software	Deploys a software by executing provider-specific subflow. Creates catalog tasks if there is a failure in the execution of the provider subflow.

Tableau 5. Subflows available with CSD 2.0
Subflow	Description
Assign License	Creates an entitlement record.
Client Software Lease Extend	Extends the lease end date of the required software.
CSD Deploy Software Post Processing	Performs post processing after the software deployment is successful.
CSD Lease End Notification	Notifies user about the lease end date of the software and send link to extend lease end date.
Delete Lease Records	Deletes the lease schedule, lease execution, and lease manager records associated with the requested item.
Deploy Application Template	Flow template for the Deploy Application flow.
Look up Configuration Data Template	Flow template for the Look up Configuration Data flow.
Revoke Application Template	Flow template for the Revoke Application flow.
Revoke License	Removes the specified entitlement record.
Revoke Client Software	Revokes software from the provider server.

Tableau 6. Actions available with CSD 2.0
Action	Description
Get CSD Record URL	Generates link for the requested software.
Is Date Empty	Verifies if the input date is empty.
License Validation	Checks the license availability and retrieves the license information if available.
Update Lease End on Requested Item	Updates the lease end date of the requested item record.
