Upgrading the Package Manager

To Install Package Manager

1. The Package Manager tool is available in the folder Tools/Package.Manager
2. (Optional) Add the \bin folder to your PATH environment variable

To Configure Package Manager

1. Set up connection to your AE in the uc4config.xml file or copy your AE configuration file uc4config.xml to the conf folder.

   Example:

   C:\Automic\apm\conf

2. (Optional) store your credentials in the login_dat.xml file that is located in the conf folder

   APM accesses the AE. Therefore APM prompts for AE user name and password. If you want to store the credentials so that you do not need to enter them each time, store your credentials (system name, client, department, user) in the login_dat.xml file.

   Note: The password is never read from login_dat.xml. You must use the parameter -pw <password>.

3. (Optional) If you want to have the local repository somewhere else than in the folder where the Package Manager application is located (for example, C:\Automic\apm), you can add a location element in the pmconfig.xml file located in the \conf folder

   Example:

   <localRepo> <location>C:\myrepo</location> </localRepo>

4. Ensure that the user executing the Package Manager has write permissions on the folder where the local repository is stored.
