As part of its Dynamic Systems Initiative and patch management plans, Microsoft plans to officially launch its Systems Management Server 2003 Nov. 11. As Microsoft strives to improve the overall management of the Windows infrastructure, SMS 2003 will play a more effective role in distributing full software upgrades, such as the forthcoming Office 2003 applications and security patches, Muglia said.
Microsoft, Redmond, Wash., also said it released its forthcoming Microsoft Operations Manager 2004 into private beta-testing last week and plans to ship the upgrade in mid-2004. MOM 2004 will offer management packs for security and Web services support, executives added.
