Managing packages

With Packaging Utility, you can create repositories, copy packages, and delete packages. These capabilities depend on the type of server you are using to manage packages. Consult the Packaging Utility capabilities table for information about how Packaging Utility works on different server types.
Table 1. Packaging Utility capabilities by server type

FTP See note No Yes No
HTTP See note No Yes No
HTTPS See note No Yes No
Intranet Yes Yes Yes Yes
Local Yes Yes Yes Yes
Note: You cannot create repositories directly on FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS servers. If you are using an FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS server, you must use Packaging Utility to create a repository in a local directory first. Then copy the repository onto the FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS server. If you are using a local or intranet server, you can create repositories directly in those locations.
