The task you create will be run according to the schedule. Application
operation settings on each client computer will be configured based on
the group policy and the default settings of the application.
You can abort the installation process by manually interrupting execution
of the task.
All installation packages created for the Administration Server will be located on
the console tree in a special container

Administration Server these installation packages will be stored in the specified
shared folder in the service folder
Packages.
You can review the properties of the installation package, change its name and
settings using the
