Asset Management Suite

We just held our Endpoint Management Technical Workshop in Chicago! We kicked things off with a Live Webcast to officially launch IT Management Suite 8.1 and Ghost Solution Suite 3.2. Following the webcast, we had 11 sessions and 4 labs. 

Special thanks to the Symantec Product Management and Education teams who created and delivered most of the content and to all the customers, partners, and employees who attended and helped make the event a success.

   This helps answer the question in quantitative terms as to how fast you can expect you agent upgrade process to be (it's different for every environment). It applies to any software/patch rollout.
    
3. My "Getting the Hang Of IOPS" Article
   
   https://www.symantec.com/connect/articles/getting-hang-iops-v13
   
   This is pretty much critical reading for Altiris Admins wanting to 'cross the divide' into storage. It explains what IOPS are, and what 'type' is critical for ITMS.
