Management This deployment guide provides information and tips and tricks that will help you to automate the Microsoft® Windows® 2000 operating system upgrade process. Given all these technologies, the question is how to use them effectively in order to solve your business needs. This collection of guides is intended to help you quickly find the information you’re looking for to understand, deploy, and use IntelliMirror in your organization, as well as understand how to get increased business value from complementary Microsoft technologies. The IntelliMirrorTM management technologies are a set of powerful features built into the Windows® 2000 operating system and designed to increase availability and reduce the overall cost of supporting users of Windows. IntelliMirror uses policy-based Change and Configuration Management to enable users' data, software, and settings to follow them throughout a distributed computing environment, whether they are on- or off-line.

Windows. This white paper presents an overview of the Plug and Play enhancements for the Windows® 2000 Professional operating system. To simplify device driver development and device management, Plug and Play enables a user to add or remove devices and allows the operating system to adapt to hardware configuration changes, without users having to intervene. Microsoft Management Console (MMC) is an extensible common presentation service for management applications. MMC is included in the Windows® 2000 operating system. This paper introduces MMC, and provides an overview of the MMC user interface, and the MMC architecture. It also explains the concept of management snap-ins, and how they relate to the console. This

uses. One of the most challenging and costly functions performed by IT staff today is the deployment of a new operating system to client computers. The Remote OS Installation feature uses the new PXE-based remote boot technology to assist IT staff with the deployment of Windows 2000 Professional in a remote way, thus reducing IT support overhead in bringing new computers online, and in reinstalling operating systems in the field. This paper describes Windows 2000 Software Installation and Maintenance, one of the key Change and Configuration Management features. Administrators can use Software Installation and Maintenance to manage software throughout the software’s lifecycle to reduce their organization’s Total Cost of Ownership for Windows 2000 Professional.You can use Group Policy to control how a workstation functions, reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO). This white paper describes six scenarios for using Group Policy, one of the key Change and Configuration Management technologies provided in the Windows® 2000 operating system. This white paper describes the IntelliMirror user data and settings management features of the Windows 2000 operating system. These features are key components of change and configuration management. The user data and settings management features can help administrators reduce their organizations’ Total Cost of Ownership. This paper presents an overview of the Microsoft® Windows® 2000 operating system Desktop Management features that administrators can use to centrally manage change and configuration to the systems deployed in their organization. Windows® 2000 is a powerful operating system that can be managed remotely. The range of remote management options has been greatly increased in Windows 2000. From Windows Terminal Services to command line scripts, IT professionals now have a range of tools to administer a Windows 2000 machine remotely. This paper describes several new remote management tools that can be used to administer Windows 2000 machines, whether they exist in the corporate data center or at a branch office.This

maintenance. This white paper describes the Windows Installer service--a feature of the Windows® 2000 Professional operating system. The Windows Installer service defines and manages a standard format for application setup and installation, and tracks components such as groups of files, registry entries, and shortcuts. Windows Installer is a system-resident installation service that provides consistent deployment, enabling administrators and users to manage shared resources, customize installation processes, make decisions on application usage, and resolve configuration problems. While many of the benefits of the Microsoft® Windows® 2000 operating system relate to the Active DirectoryTM service and will thus appeal to those organizations with many thousands of users and computers, the improved administration capabilities of Windows 2000 will also benefit anyone currently running a Microsoft Windows NT® operating system-based network. The purpose of this white paper is to outline the advantages of upgrading to Windows 2000 for administration. This white paper presents a brief overview of WMI and its architecture, including detailed information about the WMI provider interfaces and aspects of programming WMI providers. This paper provides an introduction to Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM), and describes how the Microsoft® implementation of WBEM-compatible technologies—Windows® Management Instrumentation (WMI)—and the latest enhancements to the Component Object Model (COM) work together to simplify systems management while providing a better-managed environment.This paper presents an overview of the Microsoft® Windows® Management Instrumentation (WMI) globalization model. Windows Management Instrumentation is an implementation of the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) initiative, which provides standards for accessing and sharing management information in an enterprise environment. This paper is intended for developers and administrators of multi-lingual Windows 2000 installations. This paper presents an overview of the Microsoft® Windows® Management Instrumentation (WMI) Providers API. The Windows Management Instrumentation is an implementation of the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) initiative that provides standards for accessing and sharing management information in an enterprise environment. This white paper describes how to use and install the Windows Script Host (WSH), a language-independent scripting host for 32-bit Windows® operating system platforms that brings simple, powerful, and flexible scripting to the 32-bit Windows platform. Windows Script Host will be integrated into the Windows 95 updates and Windows 2000. This white paper describes the Windows® Task Scheduler, a new service and user interface that runs on the Windows operating systems. The paper is intended for software developers and system integrators. This white paper introduces the reliability improvements in Windows 2000 and includes best practices for implementing highly reliable and available systems based on the Windows 2000 platform. In addition to data modeling, WMI offers a powerful set of base services that include query-based information retrieval, scripting and event notification. Access to these services and to the management data is made possible through a single Component Object Model (COM) programming interface. Listed below are some of the third party management applications already available that use WMI services to manage Windows 2000-based systems. This paper presents an overview of the Microsoft® Windows® Management Instrumentation (WMI) technology, an implementation of the Distributed Management Force’s (DMTF) Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) initiative, and concentrates on WMI’s support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This information is intended for IT professionals who are interested in SNMP and WMI.
