Modify a Package Wrapper

Package wrappers define a set of platform-specific installation settings for a deployment package, such as installation path, port, trap communities, and so on. You can edit a user created or default package wrapper to change this set of installation settings. The available properties vary by the package type.

To modify a package wrapper

  1. Select Resources, Deployment.

    The Deployment pane displays the Packages, Templates, and Jobs folders.

  2. Expand Packages, the specific package type, and the wrapper platform, and select the wrapper to modify.

    The wrapper details appear in the right pane.

  3. Modify the package properties as necessary and click Save. The options that appear in the Properties pane depend on the package type that you select.
