Adding files to the repository
Use the following procedure to download and add files to the Flex Appliance repository.
Guidelines for adding files to the repository:
Only add files that have been downloaded from or provided by Veritas.
Do not change the file names.
To avoid upload issues, ensure that your computer has a strong network connection with the appliance and is connected locally to the same network. Veritas recommends that you use a Windows lab computer if available.
To download and add files to the repository
- From a computer within your appliance domain, download the appropriate file from the Download Center on the Veritas Support website.
- From the same computer, sign in to the Flex Appliance Console and click the Repository icon in the left-side navigation bar to open the Repository page.
- On the Repository page, navigate to the Applications, Application add-ons, or Appliance updates tab, depending on the type of file that you want to add.
- Click Add application, Add add-on, or Add package.
- In the dialog box that appears, do the following:
At the top of the dialog box, click on the drop-down and navigate to the location where you downloaded the file from Veritas.
Select the downloaded file from the list of items that appears, then click Open.
If you added an update package, a progress banner appears at the top of the screen. When the task is complete, the new file appears on the page.
If you added an application or application add-on, you are redirected to the Activity Monitor to view the progress. When the task is complete, return to the Repository page to see the new file at the top of the list.
