Altiris eXpress HP and Altiris have extended their partnership to deliver industry-leading solutions that reduce the complexity of managing hardware and software for desktops, notebooks, handheld devices, and servers throughout their lifecycle. Altiris eXpress allows the system administrator to create and quickly deploy a customized, corporate-standard software image across one or more networked client PCs with an interface as simple to use as Windows Explorer. Altiris eXpress supports Preboot Execution Environment (PXE). Using Altiris eXpress and the Remote System Installation features of the HP computer, there is no need for the system administrator to visit each new PC individually to deploy the software image. The Altiris eXpress solutions provide an efficient and effective way to automate existing processes and address problem areas within your IT environment. With the Altiris eXpress web-based infrastructure, you have the flexibility to manage your systems from anywhere at anytime-even from your iPAQ Pocket PC! The Altiris eXpress solutions are modular and extensible to span the needs of workgroups to the enterprise. They integrate with other industry client management tools and provide extensions to Microsoft BackOffice/SMS. The expanded Altiris eXpress solutions focus on four key IT areas: ■ Deployment & Migration ■ Software & Operations Management ■ Inventory & Asset Management ■ Help Desk & Problem Resolution 4 www.hp.com Desktop Management Guide
