Adding Images to the Software Repository From a File System
Use the following procedure to add software images from a file system to the software repository.
You have to know the directory name in which the image files are stored before importing the images

Note View Permission Report (Common Services > Server > Reports) to check if you have the required

To add images from file system:
Step 1 Select Resource Manager Essentials > Software Mgmt > Software Repository.

b. Select either the file or the directory on the RME server.
c. Click OK.
Step 5 Click Next.

You cannot add an image if a file with the same name already exists in the software repository or if
the minimum required attributes cannot be retrieved.
• Image Type—Image type, determined from the filename. If the image type is not correct, select
correct type from drop-down list box.
Software Management tries to determine the image type from the filename. If it cannot determine
the image type (for example, if the image has been renamed to a nonstandard name), it labels the
image type as
Unknown.

choose not to add an image by deselecting the corresponding check box.
