This redbook describes the Mobile Client feature as available in TME 10
Software Distribution. It explains the concept of a mobile software
distribution client, gives examples of how to install and configure the
Mobile Client in different environments and shows typical change management
scenarios.
This redbook was written for IBM and customer technical personnel who are
involved in the design and implementation of software distribution networks
using mobile clients, for example, in a sales organization with many mobile
users.
This redbook should also be useful in getting a general understanding of
mobile computing and the involved components.
Several practical examples are presented to demonstrate the function and the
usage of the Mobile Client feature.
Some knowledge of software distribution in general as well as a basic
knowledge of the underlying operating systems and communication protocols is
assumed.
Some knowledge of TME 10 Software Distribution, in particular Software
Distribution for AIX and Software Distribution for OS/2, is recommended
but not mandatory.
