Multiple deployment types install using dependencies
Hi All,
Sorry to bother you but I can't seem to find any reference to this out side of a colleague that says that we can deploy software through multiple deployment types in once instance.
I have been working to develop applications for software like Python, R etc. And our members of staff constantly want new Plugins/Packages adding in so we figured that just adding an extra deployment type and a dependency to last type would suffice & be more reliable instead of updating the script but it isn't working.
It says that the software is compliant even though it hasn't installed everything from the other deployment types. It seems to just be doing deployment type 1 and skipping the rest even though they are all marked as dependant on this so it shouldn't go through as far as I know.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Many Thanks,
Ben
- Garth-MVPIron ContributorYes you can create and app will multiple deployment types but only ones deployment type is ever installed. It is unclear from your post, are you using two app or just one?

Hi Garth,
I'm using one deployment with several deployment types.
Is the only way to get this working to either script it or use several applications?
Many Thanks,
Ben
- Garth-MVPIron ContributorYes that is the only way. That is way ConfigMgr works.
With only one app only one deployment type at a time will ever get installed, You need two app or you can script things.
