Accelerate the Move to the Market Leader in
Configuration Management
Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager is the market leader in systems
management solutions. People select Configuration Manager for a variety of reasons,
including its simplicity and cost-effectiveness when compared to competing solutions
such as AltirisTM (Symantec Endpoint Management).

For enterprises who currently use Altiris but want to enjoy the speed and usability
benefits that Configuration Manager provides, Microsoft and Adaptiva have joined
forces to introduce the new OneSite Configuration Manager Migration tool (CMT).
The solution, which comes packaged as part of the Adaptiva OneSiteTM content
distribution engine, makes the move from Altiris to Configuration Manager fast,
automated, and controlled. It dramatically simplifies the steps necessary for
organizations to make a smooth transition into their systems management future. 


Migrate Your Entire Organization to Configuration


Manager in Under 24 Hours
With OneSite you can migrate 1000s of applications from Altiris to Configuration
Manager in just a few hours – a process that would typically take months. In most
production environments the entire migration can be completed in less than 24 hours
if desired. OneSite’s automation capabilities enable a seamless and flawless transition
to Configuration Manager that no other solution on the market can deliver.

Simplify the Transition to Configuration Manager


through Automation
Traditionally, a move from a competing systems management solution

to Configuration Manager could be complex, requiring time-consuming manual
efforts to migrate content and applications over to the new system. With the new
OneSite Configuration Manager Migration Tool this process can be reduced to just a
few automated steps.

Key Automation Features
Server-side Content Migration: Automatically populate Configuration Manager server
with all Altiris software releases, packages and package-linked command lines to
reduce extensive manual efforts.

- Convert all Altiris software releases and programs into Configuration Manager
Application Deployment Types at the source.

- Create both the metadata and Configuration Manager source files.

- Automatically detect MSI-based Altiris software releases and handle the


conversion to Configuration Manager content.

Note - Software releases using complex detection types will require minor manual
intervention prior to deployment.

Migrate All of Your Altiris Applications Instantly

Package Server Content Migration

Preserve all data cached in servers at each operating location to eliminate the time and
burden of WAN redelivery.

- Convert all the content that was previously pre-staged to each operating location
to Configuration Manager.

- Avoid massive WAN bandwidth utilization that would be required to re-download


Altiris content.

- Match all content on remote Altiris package servers to corresponding server-side


migrated content within Configuration Manager.

- Automatically convert content into Adaptiva content caches at each location.


This allows for all Altiris content previously distributed to remain deployed at a
site without needing to traverse the WAN a second time after migrating.

Note - Administrators simply run a single standalone executable to execute the


conversion process.

Eliminate the Burden of Content Redelivery over the


WAN

Client-cached Content Migration

Enable peer-to-peer content sharing to automatically convert content in individual


client caches to Configuration Manager and boost deployment speed.

- Capture Altiris content cached on endpoint devices, and convert it to the


Adaptiva cache. Keeping the client-cached content speeds deployments and
avoids WAN re-downloading.

- Identify content already within the Altiris Software Delivery cache on any remote
client.

- Convert the content directly into OneSite’s AdaptivaCache making the content
immediately available for installation and peer-to-peer content sharing within
that location.

Altiris to Configuration Manager Client Migration

Retain total flexibility and control when migrating clients by automatically installing
and uninstalling the Configuration Manager and Altiris clients all at once or in stages.

- Remove the Altiris client and install the Configuration Manager client
automatically — without the need to have either product functioning on the
system.

- Optionally, only install the Configuration Manager client, leaving the Altiris client
intact and operational.

- Perform install/uninstall functions independently to allow for parallel operation of


Altiris and Configuration Manager during the crossover period.

- Operate estate-wide or target installs to groups of systems for a phased rollout


approach.
