Ok so in my company, we have a 3rd party that supports our servers. We use CMS to manage laboratory computers and it does great.
This isnt really important but since im starting over in DEV, I thought, lets try and cleanup a bit more...
When I get to TEST it still isnt an issue as both DEV/TEST only have one server. The CMS which will also act as the package server; however, PROD has a CMS and about 15 package servers and we have more sites coming on soon.
So what I am wondering is simple...
If we have a package server, does it require more than installing the Altiris CMS main client agent (aexnsc.exe) and package server piece? task if you choose as well....
I am wondering if it matters to have Inventory, Software and Patch agents installed. We do not deploy software or patches and inventory doesnt matter to us.
Just curious... right now they have it all but if we dont need all that, why install as then they wont show up in patch reports, software reports, etc
