Altiris ITMS 7.1 測試更新~

 

下了幾天的ITMS 7.1  的安裝包一直沒空裝 ,趁週末有空在自己虛擬機折騰了一把~~~

安裝速度有少少提高裝一個CMS 除去下載軟件包時間不到一個小時,重點是支持部署在W2K8R2 64位的系統上

這樣就不會出現 之前的情況  Altiris服務器 跑在32G 32位 2K3 上面,

控制檯最大的感覺,利用 Silverlight 做的界面增加了, 這個從DS 7.1也可以發現這一點,

而現在控制檯中整個管理 項的界面全使用Silverlight 來做~ 體驗了一下~~ 不錯不錯~~

有點像當初DS 6.9 的界面佈局了~ 

給大家上幾張截圖先~~

■ Native 64-bit support on client side - The are now both 32-bit and 64bit versions
of the Patch Management Solution for Windows plug-in.
■ Remove entitlement check for Red Hat and Novell - The installation for the
Patch for Linux plug-in no longer requires that an endpoint have valid
entitlement information. In addition, the Patch for Linux plug-in no longer
verifies the entitlement status of each endpoint with Red Hat or Novell on a
real-time basis prior to installing updates.
■ Reports and Portal page performance optimizations - Implemented
performance improvements to several reports and web parts in the Patch
portal.
■ Unified rollout policy for Windows and LinuxSWUplug-ins - There is a single
policy to rollout both the 32-bit and 64-bit version of the Patch for Windows

plug-ins on computers with 32-bit operating systems and the 64-bit version
of the plug-ins on computers with 64-bit operating systems.
■ Removed Linux Patch Inventory rules to improve overall performance - Patch
for Linux no longer uses inventory rules to determine whether a package is
applicable to a particular endpoint and, if so, whether it has been installed on
that endpoint. This determination is now made on the basis of a catalog of
RPM packages applicable to each supported operating system.
■ Removed Patch replication rules for Patch policies to use native NS replication
rules - In cases where there is a need to replicate all Patch policies, it is no
longer necessary to replicate each individual Patch policy.

■ Software Update policy wizard performance improvements - Improved
performance of Software Update Policy Wizard in Patch for Linux by moving
dependency resolution functionality to the background.

properties, enabling users to edit certain aspects of policies that have been
replicated down the hierarchy from the child notification server.

Power Scheme¨ but is equal to the name of the task. This makes report more
usable as you can see from the name what power scheme task is applied there
■ Power scheme plugin is now visible in the software catalog
■ Report performance optimization
■ Renamed agent to plugin
What's new in Real-Time System Manager 7.1
■ 1 to 1 OOB BIOS Management for TruManage Solution

web-part. This simplifies usage of the Server Resource Manager home page
What's new in Server Management Suite Topology Viewer
■ Re-factored network topology Web part as a part of the quality improvement
efforts:
■ Topology viewer application now is very responsive and interactive to user
in all aspects

nodes in topology

■ Localization: all out of box forms on the ServiceDesk portal will be localized
■ New performance testing results: recent performance testing has revealed
that a single SD7 server is capable of handling up to 120 concurrent users,
well beyond what we have previously communicated. For customers that have

more than 120 concurrent users, we should include some basic
steps/considerations for standing up multiple SD7 servers behind a load

Summary) now support hierarchy.
What's new in Symantec Endpoint Protection Integration Component
7.1
■ Remote Machine Repair via IDE-R and SERT
■ Power Sensitive Malware Scanning
What's new in Wise Connector 7.1
■ 64-bit support
What's new in Virtual Machine Management 7.1
■ Streamlined credential management. The VMM_vmware and VMM_Hyperv
credential types are no longer used. When setting up a Network Discovery task
to discover ESX and HyperV hosts and their guests the user configures a
VMware credential and a WMI credential (for HyperV hosts). When these

machines are discovered NS remembers the credential used to connect to each
machine. The user does not have to create any additional credentials. The
VMM tasks use the credential that was used during Network Discovery.
■ DS – VMM integration. The create VM wizard has been modified. The main
change is that at the end of defining the VM the user should select an OS
deployment job (which they need to have created previously). After the wizard
is finished theVMis created and powered on. TheVMbeing completely empty
attempts a network boot and looks for a PXE server. The user needs to have
configured the DS PXE server to deploy an automation p_w_picpath to unknown
computers. When the VM connects to the PXE server it should receive the
automation p_w_picpath the user created. This will connect to NS and then the OS
deployment job they selected will execute on the VM. Other changes to the
wizard involve selecting the datastore in which to create the VM.
■ VMMinventory task changes. There will be a predefinedVMMinventory task
that will be applied to a Resource target of All discovered hypervisors (esx 3.5,
esx 4.0, esxi 4.0, and HyperV. This task will have a default schedule of daily at
6:30pm.
■ Notes:
■ After upgrading from 7.0 to 7.1 the user should run the VMM inventory
task on all their hypervisors to get new 7.1 data.
■ vCenter servers and ESX servers must have a common management
username/password account that has rights to Connect and use the VMware
webservice API.
