    You need to download the Symantec Installation Manager, or SIM, from a trialware link on any of Symantec's Altiris pages.

    Here's a link to the Client Management Suite page, which has a Trialware link:
    http://www.symantec.com/business/products/trialware.jsp?pcid=pcat_infrastruct_op&pvid=cm_suite_1

    Then log in using your SymAccount (or create a new one if you don't have one) and download SIM.  SIM is installed on the server that will host Altiris, and it prepares the server for the Altiris installation and then installs the solutions for you.

    If you install on Windows Server 2003 32-bit, you'll be able to download and install SMP 7.0 and solutions.  If you install on Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit, you'll be able to download and install SMP 7.1 and solutions.

    For more information, check out this compilation of documentation posted by JMart:

    Does this answer your question?

    It's installed by SIM.  After launching SIM, click on Install new products, then change the first filter to Product Type and the second filter to Platform.  This will install the Symantec Management Platform.

    If you already installed a solution suite, it will have automatically installed SMP for you.

    I'm not sure what you mean.  Does it say C:\Program Files\Altiris?  This is the installation directory where Altiris and all solutions and data will be stored.  Ensure it has enough space for your install or evaluation.

    Did you read any of these documents?

    Specifically, have you looked at the ITMS Implementation Guide?

    Hi,

     

    Does it say C:\Program Files\Altiris?  This is the installation directory where Altiris and all solutions and data will be stored.  Ensure it has enough space for your install or evaluation.

     

    YES it say  C:\Program Files\Altiris. the solutions and data is stored in  C:\Program Files\Altiris\Symantec Installation Manager\Installs\Altiris

     

    there i have the Altiris_activity center, symantec_asdk_agent_di_x64, etc... and others installers  .MSI.

    So, i have Symantec_SIM_7_1.exe, but, when i executed this program, it´s make a loop of installer, because, it´s show me the SIM installer, and others applications of altiris  like "pc anyware" and SMP plataform, but it doesn´t install the  SMP when i check the box.
    do you have a MSN to speek with you about this problem?

    thanks

    If you need real-time help, contact support.  But the community here will help where we can.

    So you are presented with an 'Install new products' page, and when you change the filter to Platform, and check the box next to Symantec Management Platform, and click Next, nothing happens?  It should move you through prompts to provide contact information, application credentials, database location, etc.
