page 194.

c “Request Update Activation Keys” on page 195.
2 Set up testing. Complete these tasks:

b “Upload the Software Package and Create a Trial Software Update
Package” on page 199. For more information on software update
packages, see “View Automatic Software Update Information” on

3 Once your testing of the trial software package is complete, do one of
these tasks:

page 199
— “Delete the Trial Software Update Package” on page 200.
Create a Local Trial Group
To trial a software update with a specific group of local and/or enterprise
users, create a local group that includes these users, as described in “Add a
Local Group” on page 268. The people in this group will receive the trial
software update package when their endpoint goes through its normal,
automated software update process.
Notes
• You can use an existing enterprise group as a trial group, but you will not be
allowed to change the enterprise group in any way.
• If the trial software group is a parent group with children, all of its children will
inherit trial permissions.
