1) Start with a clean PC, or one that is representative of the computers in your network.

2) Start Discover to take a picture of the representative PC's software configuration. This

is the Before snapshot.

3) Install a program on the PC on which you took the Before snapshot.

4) Reboot the PC.

5) Run the new program to verify that it works.

6) Quit the program.

7) Start Discover and take an After snapshot of the PC's new configuration. Discover compares the Before and the After snapshots and notes the changes. It creates a Microsoft Installer package with information about how to install that program on such a PC in the future.

8) (Optional) Use Veritas Software Console to customize the Microsoft Installer package.

9) Clean the reference computer to prepare to run Discover again.

10) (Optional) Perform a test installation of the program on non-production workstations.
