Map Values to Altiris Asset Management and Helpdesk Solutions

Introduction

This white paper will outline the technical aspects of leveraging an organizations investment in Microsoft Active Directory and Altiris solutions such as the Active Directory Connector, Inventory Solution, Asset Management and Helpdesk solutions. It will focus on how to create new resource types within Active Directory and the Altiris CMDB and export the information from Active Directory to be imported and mapped to Altiris Resources to be made available for use with other Altiris Solutions. This ability improves the integration of Altiris and Microsoft while reducing time of manually entering data into Altiris, reducing human typographic errors and reduces likely errors from incorrect or missing updates.
