When you capture and store ThinApp applications to distribute from VMware Identity Manager, you must meet certain requirements.

VMware Identity Manager Requirements for ThinApp Packages and the Network Share Repository.DFS shares on Isilon storage systems are also supported. CIFS and DFS shares running on NetApp storage systems are supported. The DFS share can be a single Server Message Block (SMB) file share or multiple SMB file shares organized as a distributed file system. The network share can be a Common Internet File System (CIFS) or a Distributed File System (DFS) share. See VMware Identity Manager Requirements for ThinApp Packages and the Network Share Repository. VMware Identity Manager synchronizes with this network share regularly to obtain the ThinApp package metadata that VMware Identity Manager requires to distribute and manage the packages. The ThinApp repository must be a network share that is accessible to VMware Identity Manager using a Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) path. Typically, you perform the steps to connect VMware Identity Manager to the repository and sync the packages as part of the overall setup and configuration of your VMware Identity Manager environment. For more information about ThinApp features and how to enable your applications for management by VMware Identity Manager, see the VMware ThinApp documentation. For example, in the ThinApp Setup Capture wizard, you select the Manage with Workspace check box. To be managed by VMware Identity Manager, these packages must be enabled with the appropriate options. ThinApp provides application virtualization by decoupling an application from the underlying operating system and its libraries and framework and bundling the application into a single executable file called an application package. After the sync process is finished, the ThinApp packages are available in your VMware Identity Manager catalog and you can entitle them to your VMware Identity Manager users and groups. To use VMware Identity Manager to distribute and manage applications packaged with VMware ® ThinApp ®, you must have a ThinApp repository that contains the ThinApp packages, point to that repository, and sync the packages.
