2.4 Advertisement Interaction
The advertisement Interaction tab (shown in Figure 11)
provides settings that were not configurable running the Distribute
Software to Collection Wizard. These include the following:
Allow users to run the program independently of advertisements—
Provides the ability to allow users to run the program independent of
assignments (unchecked by default). If there is a requirement for users
to be able to run the program that is advertised (whether it is
assigned or not), the first box should be checked to allow this to
occur. This causes the program to list as available for installation in
the Run Advertised Programs within ConfigMgr.
Display reminders according to the client agent reminder intervals—
Specify whether reminders are broadcast to the client according to the
default interval configured on the Computer Client agent (grayed out
unless the previous option is selected).
Use custom countdown notification length (minutes)— Set
a custom count-down notification length—as an example, for an
advertisement that will run for a long time or require a reboot at the
end of the installation (this option is unchecked by default).
2.5 Advertisement Security
When
you use the Distribute Software to Collection Wizard to create an
advertisement, the default class and instance rights are associated
with that advertisement. Figure 12
displays these settings, which default to allow the user creating the
advertisement to control the advertisement. You can change
advertisement permissions by selecting the Security tab on the
advertisement. You can also define advertisement permissions in the
Security Rights section of the ConfigMgr console under Site Database
-> Security Rights -> Rights. You can configure permissions on
the class or instance level in either of these two locations, defining
which users have what level of permissions to the advertisement.
