Hi,
we are planning to migrate from our legacy installer to a new one, and Advanced Installer seems to be very powerful option. But we have a complex scenario:
- very big installation program: many GB
- client-server installation: every installation has 1 server and many clients
- the clients are not connected to the internet
I'm wondering how to build the installer in order to manage the upgrades so that:
- Download from internet update only modified modules of the new release (I would like not to download GB for every update)
- Download the updates only once, not once per client: clients could not be connected to the internet at all.
- Possibly the clients should upgrade without accessing shared folders on the server (is there a way to download installation files from the server to client local folder?)
- Download updates in the background, before customers decides to upgrade the application: I don't want them to wait for the download
- Launch the upgrade as a service
Is Advanced Installer able to manage such a scenario?
Thanks
