Hardware independent Imaging Solution

 

Hardware independent Imaging Solution for Deployment Solution (HIIS) is a complete process management environment for hardware independent image deployment (HID). HllS is a powerful, new automation technology that reduces the workload and time required to achieve and maintain enterprise HID capability by up to 95%! Whether you are deploying XP, Vista, 2003 or 2008 Server, HllS lets you obtain quick results and one of the shortest term ROI tracks in today's technology marketplace!

 

The HllS console presents administrators with an intuitive GUI that manages a step-by-step process to automatically perform enterprise system hardware inventory analysis, driver pack gathering, image preparation, deployment server image, deployment job integration and image process maintenance phases that are common to every HID initiative. Altiris customers benefit by replacing a cumbersome, manually engineered and maintained process, with effective automation. Organizations that have not had the technical resources or time to deploy a hardware independent image process can now quickly and easily obtain one in day!

 


ANALYZE

  
For the first time ever, you will see distinct hardware platform groupings that exist in your enterprise! These “Compatibility Classes” are groupings of computers that are compatible with the same driver pack. This process then allows the administrator to designate healthy systems to be utilized as a driver source, and/or integrate OEM supplied drivers in both PnP and executable formats.
  • Robust and customizable system classification algorithms reduces driver pack failures due to intra-model hardware variances!
  • Scheduled automatic detection of hardware changes
  • Incredible time savings over manually engineered HID processes

COLLECT

  
HIIS allows you to quickly generate a comprehensive driver pack (including those required by special peripherals and non-OEM components) library. This provides you with a comprehensive driver layer which can be combined with OEM downloaded drivers. Drivers are stored in a single driver instancing library and managed with intuitive GUI tools that allow for easy driver upgrades and assignments.
  • Silent, low-impact gathering of necessary driver packs
  • Driver packs optimized for automated, hands off delivery
  • Upgrade drivers in minutes -WITHOUT recompiling your image

INTEGRATE

  
Automates image creation, Sysprep.inf/unattend.xml management and configuration of deployment jobs that support just-in-time "Injection" of driver packs into deployed images, enabling seamless plug and play on first boot-up of the imaged system.
  • Literally minutes instead of months to upgrade from a manual to an automated, data-driven HID process
  • Completely automated template image packing and capture
  • Automated creation of tokenized Sysprep.inf/Unatend.xml templates
  • Flexible HAL and Driver handling for pre-Vista OS’s

MAINTAIN

  
Administrators set policies to automate scheduled hands-off updating of the existing HID process. This ensures that when new hardware or new computers are added to an environment, that they will be automatically supported by your deployment processes.
  • Automated identification and HID handling of new hardware
  • Automated driver handling of newly deployed models
