Quoting from an article submitted by Patrick Kaak on Juice

Most of the time I install software by Group Policies in the Active Directory. But I encountered a few obstacles that forced me to blaze a new trail. Here's how I use WiseScripts to take care of some of my software installation woes.

Rethinking My Strategy

• SVS does not have an interface yet to distribute layers to the workstations in GPOs.
• Wise Package Studio only has an SVS Wrapper for MSIs and not the other way around.

Those are the reasons I tried to make a wrapper myself. This is the first version of it.

• It looks for an Layername, places a VSA on the workstation and imports it into SVS.
• It also can activate the new layer at startup and/or activate the layer after the installation.
• The installation shows up in the Add/Remove program and will delete the layer when you un-install the MSI.

MSIs aren't made to distribute and install SVS Layers. There are no native functions for it. So I use embedded WiseScripts to make the install happen. The WiseScripts communicate with the MSI by MSI Properties.
