Overview

iPackager extracts references of the selected entities (repository objects /configuration settings) from the repository or file system and saves the configuration file on the Web Server under <Intellicus_Installation_Location>/Jakarta/webapps/Intellicus/client/config/ipackager/conf location. You can name the configuration file (‘name.conf’) and make changes to it. This configuration file is then used to build the cab file. This cab file is later deployed on the Intellicus server using the Deploy Repository Bundle feature.

To access the iPackager, you can launch it from the Intellicus Portal as shown below:
