Share Package on Server Jobs

The Share Package on Server job is used to install an SMS network application on a set of servers. Unlike the Run Command on Workstation job, the Share Package on Server job does not actually run a command on the distribution servers. It simply copies the files and directory structure in the package directory to the specified servers and makes them available as a share. The access permissions for each package are set in the PDF for that package.

The following is an example of a PDF that might be included in a Share Package on Server job:
