How to: Deploy Packages to SQL Server

This procedure describes how to install SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) packages to an instance of SQL Server, using the Package Installation Wizard.

Before you can run the Package Installation Wizard you must copy the deployment folder, which was created when you built a deployment utility, to the target computer. For more information, see Creating a Deployment Utility.
