Use the Data Access tab of the Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 mobile device configuration package properties dialog box to specify the data access properties of the configuration package.
Specify the configuration pack settings.
- Access distribution folder through common ConfigMgr package share
- Specifies whether users will access the configuration package through the common Configuration Manager 2007 package share (SMSPKGx$, where x is the drive letter) on distribution points. This option is selected by default.
- Share distribution folder
- Specifies whether the configuration package will be created on distribution points with an administrator-specified share and path name. Selecting this option requires a share name.
- Share name
- Specifies a share name or path to be created for the
configuration package source files on distribution points. Two
options are available:
- The value can be a share, in which case the
name must be unique across all packages. If this option is used,
all files and subdirectories within that share will be deleted and
re-created each time the package is updated or refreshed.
- The value can be a share and a path, in the
format sharename\path, in which case the path must be unique across
all packages. If this option is used, only the final directory in
the path will be deleted and re-created each time the package is
updated or refreshed.
To control which drive a configuration package folder is created on, you can assign the distribution point role to a server share rather than a server computer. For distribution points on server shares, if a share name is entered for a configuration package, it is treated as a path beneath the distribution point share (\\MyServer\MyShare).
NoteDo not enter a full Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path in Share name, such as \\server\share. Instead enter a share and path name in the format sharename\path. - The value can be a share, in which case the
name must be unique across all packages. If this option is used,
all files and subdirectories within that share will be deleted and
re-created each time the package is updated or refreshed.
- Disconnect users from distribution points
- Specifies that users will be disconnected from distribution
points when Configuration Manager 2007 updates configuration
package data. This check box is cleared by default. If this option
is selected, the following settings are available:
- Number of retries before disconnecting users:
Specifies the number of times that Configuration Manager 2007 tries
to update the configuration package source files before
disconnecting users connected to the distribution point. The
default setting is 2; you can specify 0 to 99,
inclusive.
- Number of retries before disconnecting users:
Specifies the number of times that Configuration Manager 2007 tries

inclusive.
