Un update pour Altiris 7.1 SP2 MP1 

Mar 05, 2014 04:52 AM

Il est bon de constater que Symantec ne néglige pas les clients qui n'ont pas encore migrés en 7.5, et sont encore en 7.1:

Ce Rollup comprend et remplace les rollup précédents, il fait 350MB et est disponible ici

ITMS 7.1 SP2 MP1 Rollup Version 9 Release Notes

Je souhaiterai préciser toutefois, que le travail d'une mise à jour 7.5, n'est guère plus grand que d'installer un tel Rollup... La version 7.5 correspond plus à un SP3, qu'à une réelle évolution: Comme par exemple le support de Windows 2012 comme serveur... Ce n'est pas le cas et cela reste du 2008 R2, et donc un upgrade est possible facilement...

Le seul point délicat est le Rollback des agents sur les postes clients, en cas de "retour en arrière", pour ma part, ce scénario qui a peut de chance d'être nécessaire, serait de faire un:

"AexNSutil.exe /clean"

avec un startup script dans AD (GPO), en testant d'abord la version de l'agent en place, pour effacer toute trace de la "nouvelle version 7.5", pour réinstaller l'agent 7.1 "from scratch".  Le serveur restauré conserve de toute façon tous les historiques et policies. (il faut juste avoir configuré les installations de plugins selon mes recommandations, repeat daily ;)

L'impact est la mise à zéro des caches, et donc la "repopulation" de ce qui manquerait, mais avec le mode multicast et throtling activé, l'impact est invisible... Les bénéfices de "faire le grand ménage", me poussent parfois à envisager cette option, au lieu d'activer un "upgrade des agents"... Mais on peut faire ce ménage, entre 2 updates, c'est plus sûr (Ne pas cumuler les changements!). On peut ainsi le faire par zones avec étapes successives.

Super merci pour cette information.

il restera à nos chers amis de Symantec de travailler sur :

  • pcAnywhere : compatible et fonctionnelle avec Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 et Windows Server 2012 R2
  • DS 6.9 SP6 MR n ou SP7 : support de Windows 8.1 et 2012 R2.

Je regrette que cela met autant de temps pour que la validation des nouveaux OS prend autant de temps bien que Microsoft distribue des version Preview et Release Candidate.

Je n'ai pas mis la liste des FIX des rollup précédents, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, et 1, inclus dans ce Rollup 9... ;-)
