If you want to develop an application that uses [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] Management Objects (SMO), you should select the Client Tools SDK when you install [!INCLUDEssNoVersion]. To install the Client Tooks SDK without installing [!INCLUDEssNoVersion], install Shared Management Objects from the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] feature pack. If you want to ensure that [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] Management Objects is installed on a computer that will run your application, you can use the Shared Management Objects .msi in the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] feature pack.
By default, the SMO assemblies are installed in the [!INCLUDEssSampPathSDK] directory.
