Virtualization Management
Integrated Support for Management Managing both Virtual and Physical Environments
The popularity of virtualization is increasing rapidly, and medium enterprises are deploying increasing numbers of virtual machines. This proliferation of virtual assets exacerbates existing management challenges such as systems deployment, machine discovery, asset management, patch management, license compliance, remote administration and security.
KBOX appliances provide the integrated functionality to simplify these systems management tasks in mixed virtual and physical environments including:
- Virtual machine deployment via disk imaging and scripted installation
- Resetting and re-provisioning virtual machines via state management
- Virtual machine discovery and inventory with computer inventory scanning and assessment
- Patching virtual machines with patch management by PatchLink
- Distributing updates and enforcing policy with software distribution and scripting
- License compliance via the asset management module
