Parallels Desktop Pro Edition For Mac Reviews
A distribution point is a server that hosts the Parallels Desktop deployment package file. If your Jamf Pro installation does not have a distribution point, add one to host the package. For in-depth details on adding a distribution point, view our Administrator’s Guide.
Adding the deployment package to the distribution point
To add the deployment package to the distribution point:
- Open the Jamf Admin app on the Mac and log in to your Jamf Pro server.
- Drag the Parallels Desktop deployment package to the main repository area in the right pane.
The package is uploaded to the master distribution point and appears in Jamf Admin as a zip archive.
You can also set other options as needed, such as adding a package to a category or changing the package priority. Indexing the package is not necessary when deploying it on the desired Macs.
- Close the Jamf Admin after setting all the required options.
Installing the package
You can install the package on the target Mac computers by:
- Using a policy
- Using the Jamf Remote app that works similar to the Apple Remote Desktop
Deploying the package
Once the policy is retrieved by a Mac computer, it installs and activates Parallels Desktop. Once completed, the Mac user can start using Parallels Desktop immediately!
