A Better Push Deployment Wizard

Hello Bekir,
I aggree your idea. It will be very helpful for us.

Best Regards.

I like this idea.
Same goes for the Sylink tool. Seems to take forever at times.

thanks guys :)

Dear Sir's, Thank's for your Good Idea, i think that there should be a Log file for showing the Problems accured during push deployment wizard .
As i know, there isn't any Log when Problem accure during Push Wizard & we will see a Common Error Windows says this Wizard Failed without any Log. !!!

That's absolutely necessary as well Nourbakhsh.

I cant believe someone disagrees the idea by the way :) For what reason? :DD

Maybe we need to add a little more weight with this idea. I'm just thinking that deployment only happens during installation of SEP for the first time. I'm not even using this for day to day searching of PCs without an AV installed on them - especially if the server has been up for quite some time. Maybe post some examples of how you'd use it. :D

Hi,

You're right, people usually do not use it after the first deployment. But the tool itself is so dummy even if it is used only for once :)
I'm doing mass installations for many companies and I cannot even get a decent output about what happened with the installation.

If they'll ever going to improve the tool, I hope they at least consider or review this thread :D

Regards,

A log file is critical to work out whether an installation has occurred or not.
I often get cases where pc's have not upgraded for some reason or other when deploying a new package. Discovering unmanaged computers does not find these older installation computers as they are actually managed - just an old version. Therefore the only way (that I'm aware of) is to deploy with the push wizard.

I have found that half the time you can't connect to the machines by browsing but adding the names in one at a time by hand is working.

It would be nice if the system would actually detect unmanaged computers and report but I've yet to have this happen.

You can even add an option to "not to push to clients where any SEP is already installed"...

I am in the initial phase of deploying to about 800 servers and was looking for something a little more reliable that this sad excuse for a tool.

Did you guys ever confronted that the wizard just disappears just a little while after you start pushing the package?

It just vanishes, no signs of crashing, it just exits...

For this reason I am still using the ClientRemote.exe of MR4 MP2 :(
