The provisioning and ongoing management of end-user computers is often a laborious and highly time-consuming task prone to errors and inconsistencies. Tools and best practices designed to solve these problems are an IT necessity. To maximize their effectiveness, however, they must be designed to provide a more holistic approach to managing these processes using best practices.

BMC® OS Manager automates the steps of migrating and updating operating systems, including migration planning, approval, implementation, ongoing deployment status checks, and continued life cycle maintenance with verification.

Using predefined, Web-based migration reports included with BMC OS Manager, you can quickly plan a migration by automatically collecting the necessary hardware and software information to determine which machines are “migration-ready.” Then, you can remotely deploy a migration agent and initiate the migration process without ever having to touch a machine.

See BMC's website: BMC® OS Manager for more information.
