Hi,

Can you please help me on Altiris system requirements?

I have found the following link:

http://www.symantec.com/deployment-solution/system...

Windows Agent
    Windows 7 x64/x86 or later
    Windows Vista SP1 x64/x86 or later
    Windows XP SP2 x64/x86 or later
    Windows 2000 Workstation SP4 and rollups
    Windows Server 2003 SP2 x64/x86 or later (not sure if 'later' also means R2??)
    Windows Server 2008 x64/x86 or later (I suppose 'later' means SP2, but not sure on R2, am i right?)

my question if the following OS are also supported?

Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2
Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
Windows Server 2008 Standard SP2

I would like to install Altiris 7 with SEP 11.0.7 and want to double check if the listed OS are also supported above.

Can anyone has experience cisco / ARC solutions applications like UCCX, CUEAC, ARC running on windows, how these can work with if altiris also installed? (Basically SEP is supported by cisco / ARC solutions, but not sure about Altiris)

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Tibor
