28. On Demand Installation
Process Flow
• User clicks “install” on Catalog item
1
• Web site checks user‟s permissions to install
2
• Web site requests Client ID from ConfigMgr client
3 agent and passes it to Site server
• Server creates policy for the specified client and
4 app and passes it to client
• Client agent evaluates requirements from the
5 policy and initiates installation
• Client agent completes installation process and
6 reports status
