Distributing software with Systems Management Server 2003 (SMS) can be a complex process, but with the right guidance, it can be a smooth and efficient process. In this start to finish guide, we will walk you through the steps of distributing software with SMS 2003, from setting up your environment to deploying the software to your clients.
Step 1: Set up your SMS environment
Before you can start distributing software with SMS 2003, you need to set up your SMS environment. This includes installing the SMS server software on a server in your network, configuring the SMS site settings, and adding your clients to the SMS database.
Step 2: Create a software package
Once your SMS environment is set up, you can create a software package that contains the software you want to distribute. This package should include the installation files for the software, any required dependencies, and any custom scripts or settings that need to be applied during installation.
Step 3: Distribute the software package
After you have created your software package, you need to distribute it to your SMS distribution points. These distribution points are servers or clients in your network that store the software packages and make them available to your clients for installation.
Step 4: Deploy the software to your clients
Once your software package is distributed to your distribution points, you can deploy it to your clients. This can be done manually, by selecting individual clients to receive the software, or automatically, by creating an advertisement that targets specific client collections.
Step 5: Monitor and troubleshoot
After you have deployed the software to your clients, you should monitor the deployment to ensure that it is successful. If any issues arise, you can use the SMS reporting tools to troubleshoot and resolve them.
By following these steps, you can successfully distribute software with Systems Management Server 2003, from start to finish. With careful planning and execution, you can ensure that your software deployments are efficient and reliable.
