CA Technologies software management solution for Linux and UNIX includes two main components, the Packager and the Installer. CA Technologies software management tools and functions for Linux and UNIX support all relevant Linux and UNIX based operating environments on the target computers in a network.
The Software Management Packager (Packager) is used to define, configure, and package software products. CA Technologies provides a standard for packaging software for Linux and UNIX systems, called the Product Interchange Format (PIF). The result of the packaging process is called a PIF product. PIF products can be created for and installed on all Linux and UNIX operating environments that are supported by the PIF SDK (software development kit). All Packager functions are available through both the graphical user interface (Java GUI) and the command line interface (CLI).
The Installer is located on the target computer and installs products in any operating environment supported by the PIF SDK, whether the installation is unattended or dialog-driven. Installation dialogs can be used for the product installation on all types of target computers.
The Installer has features that make it easy to install products in packaging formats other than PIF, and you can manage any installed Linux or UNIX product on target computers.
