Systems Management Server (SMS)
2003 provides a comprehensive solution for addressing and resolving your change
and configuration needs. Read about SMS 2003 features in the table below.
-
Detailed application
deployment planning. Detailed reports available in
SMS 2003 ease the application deployment process. For a planned deployment, it
is easy to obtain the target group’s current hardware base, existing
applications, and version information, as well as the current service pack and
hotfix levels of the system.
-
Rich distribution
targeting. Software distribution and other
management tasks can be specifically targeted to machines and users using a
wide variety of properties including network and hardware configuration,
Active Directory® organizational unit, and group membership and software
installation status.
-
Delta distribution
between site servers and distribution points. When
changes are made to previously deployed software package sources, only the
source changes are propagated between SMS 2003 site servers and distribution
points, rather than the entire application image.
-
Elevated rights
Windows Installer service. Because SMS 2003 supports
the Windows Installer service (.msi), it is able to switch user account
contexts during a package installation allowing for self-healing application
installation on systems that have been secured.
-
Add or Remove
Programs support. Applications can be easily
published to the Add or Remove Programs interface to provide users with a
consistent way of installing applications.
