| Invitation: Altiris Software Virtualization Solution Hands-On Workshops |
|
| REGISTER NOW! |
|
| Join Symantec and E-Net Europe at one of our series of highly informative technical workshops to explore the new SVS 2.1, and to get a look at SVS 2.1 Professional, in a hands-on environment lead by experts from the Altiris Business Unit. |
|
| Managing an organisation’s vast software assets is a complex challenge. Various events trigger the need for companies to re-evaluate their approach to managing software assets. This includes OS migrations, such as an upcoming migration to Microsoft Windows Vista; recurring issues with upgrades, distributing patches; high support costs for diagnosing issues after new applications are rolled out; etc. |
|
| Altiris Software Virtualization Solution (SVS) software is a revolutionary approach to software management. By placing applications and data into managed units called Virtual Software Packages, SVS allows you to instantly activate, deactivate or reset applications and to completely avoid conflicts between applications, without altering the base Windows installation. |
|
Join us for a technical, hands-on workshop and learn more about:
- Creating and deploying Virtual Software Packages
- Modifying a layer with Edit Advanced Layer Properties
- Manually editing the file and registry structure
- New features in SVS 2.1, including Global Excludes and Delete Entries for Registry settings
