IT Management Suite

Hi everyone,

I am implementing Altiris in a multinational company.

They require a 3-tier architecture.

How to configure notification servers in Hierarchy.

Please provide me a link to videos or documents.

Please help.

Does these notification server will server clients from their subnets only??

Please Help.

All the ITMS 7.5 Documentation is here:

"IT Management Suite (ITMS) 7.5 SP1 Documentation"

http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC7440

Start with the "Planning for Implementation Guide"
 

I have gone through these document.

It only says that all notification servers in hierarchy requires a package server for replication of the packages and network connection to replicates packages.

How to assign subnets to that particular server.

Here in my case, there is a contraint that my parent notification server will be used to create new policies for software deployment & Patch deployment. And it will only replicate those policies to child Notification severs.

The site which will be assigned to Parent notification server will also be assigned to child notification server, and that site must be catered through Child notification server only.

Please explain me this thing. 

Can we go ahead with those settings.

Please advice.

Awaiting reply.

You can't assign subnets to a Notification Server AFAIK per se. Each Child NS has no awareness of the other. So if you want NS 1 to manage subnet 1 and NS2 to manage subnet 2 if a client is on subnet  but the Symantec Management Agent points to subnet 1 then NS 1 will manage it.

You could set up policies to make sure all agents are redirected to the NS you desire to manage that subnet, so you'd have a Policy on NS 1 to redirect any agents with an IP address in subent 2 to NS2 and vice versa.
