    Hi

    Just wondering if anyone has automated the install (including configuration) of the following
    - SEPM
    - Liveupdate Administrator
    - Central Quarantine

    Would very much like to automate these as spending lots of time writing build guides is driving me crazy, plus I am looking to build the same infrastructure multiple times.

    For SEPM first time

    You can install Live Administrator Utility

    You can  install Central Quarantine on the pc which has SEPM installed

    It is not recommended that Quarantine Server be used in smaller SEP environments of less than 10,000 clients.

    Automation is not there, but you  can go with installation. The  basic installation steps are the  same, and not very  difficult.

    Thanks guys.

    looking at around initially 30,000 clients, have automated most server roles with SCCM, was really hoping this one could be done too, hence the Quarantine Server, however no major configurations will be made on the Quarantine Server, so i guess it will just sit there (for now) Disapointing how the console is only 32 bit.

     

    The solution for automating the SEPM including configurations is probably using some templating technology, but the overhead management of that would'nt be worth it.
