New Infrastructure
Prism Deploy has a new SQL database as its repository for storing information about the Channel. The SQL database makes Prism Deploy version 6.0 extremely scalable, flexible and powerful, and it enables companies to leverage their existing technology investments. Prism Deploy 6.0 includes a Channel Migration Tool to migrate pre-6.0 Channels to the new SQL database.
Console Enhancements
The Prism Deploy 6.0 Console now gathers and displays extensive information from managed clients, including whether they are on- or offline, their last contact with the Channel Server, their IP address, the name of the logged-in user and more.
Security Roles
Prism Deploy version 6.0 allows you to create security roles within the Console. For instance, a Help Desk administrator may be able to create and assign Tasks, but may not be allowed to add or remove Clients from the Channel. A manager may be assigned the role of report reader only. Roles can be customized and created to suit an IT organization's structure.
Reports
Prism Deploy has an all-new report interface which includes extensive filtering, report customization and export options. Version 6.0 includes several new reports, including Administrator Action Log, Computer Status Report and others.
Wake on LAN
Prism Deploy version 6.0 can now wake computers that are powered down before deploying a Task, enabling after-hours deployments.
Note: Target computers must have supporting hardware. Wake on LAN is not supported on Windows 95.
Checkpoint Restart
Prism Deploy version 6.0 will now pick up where a deployment left off, should the connection between the target and the Task be dropped. Checkpoint restart ensures deployment reliability, especially over less stable links, and enhances support for remote users.
Package Authentication
Prism Deploy Packages can now be signed with a digital certificate. Clients can be restricted to only install Packages from a trusted source, for exceptionally secure deployments. Packages can not be viewed or edited by administrators who do not have access to the digital certificate.
Note: The minimum requirements for Client computers to support Package Authentication are: Windows 98 and Internet Explorer version 5; NT computers must be running Service Pack 4 or above.
Component Installation
Prism Deploy 6.0 components can be installed on separate systems, making Prism easy to install, configure and use. The component installation enables greater flexiblity to separate packaging, deployment and reporting functions among appropriate IT staffers.
Permissions Deployment
Prism Deploy version 6.0 can now capture file, folder and registry permissions that may be required by certain applications. This gives administrators the option of adding the necessary permissions within a Prism Package and distributing them along with the application.
Note: Permissions deployment is only supported on computers running Windows 2000 and above.
Quick Start Templates
The new Quick Start Channel, included as an option when installing Prism Deploy 6.0, provides powerful templates for illustrating Smart Update?
