SCCM2007 Desired Configuration Manager

  1. .net 2.x
  2. SML (Service Modeling Language): built on XML
    • structure: objects & relationships
    • desired config
    • admin policies
    • events; rules
  3. Compliance results sent as xml attachments to state messages; then use query-based collections to push out a software distribution that will put the client back into compliance--whether that is a repair of the application, a script, etc.
  4. Parent/Child relationships when authoring Configuration Items. i.e., the base configuration baseline from MS; if MS released an updated baseline, you do not have to re-build whatever content you've added/changed if you've done a child CI
    • Parent CI is
      • Imported from MS
      • Defined core settings
    • Child CI is
      • inherit from parent
      • add rules
      • add new settings for this child only
    • Duplicate CI
      • i.e., cloned from an original, full editing capabilities, no link back to the original
  5. Configuration baseline: buch of CIs required/optional/prohibited

Action Items: check out SML: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/dsi/serviceml.mspx
