Software Management Solution is installed from Symantec Installation Manager.
The Symantec Installation Manager (SIM) handles the installation and initial
configuration of the Symantec Management Platform. This easy-to-use installation
wizard verifies installation readiness and steps you through the product
installation and configuration.
If you need to install or uninstall Software Management Solution after the initial
platform installation, Symantec Installation Manager is available in the Symantec
Management Console.
For more information, see the Symantec Management Platform Installation Guide.
Description
You can configure the settings that control the behavior of
Managed Software Delivery policies. Rather than configuring
these settings individually for each policy, you can configure the
default settings that apply to all new Managed Software Delivery
policies.
See
"Configuring the default settings for Managed Software
Delivery"
on page 54.
The Software Portal is installed on the Notification Server
computer when Software Management Solution is installed. If
you plan to use the Software Portal, you must perform additional
implementation steps.
See
"Implementing the Software Portal"
If you plan to use software virtualization to manage
Windows-based software on client computers, install the Software
Virtualization agent on those computers.
See
"Installing the Software Virtualization agent"
Wise Toolkit provides the tools that let administrators create,
customize, and manage installations.
