Installing Deployment Server
Deployment Server is a flexible, scalable computer deployment and management
system that can be installed and configured on a single computer, or installed across
several computers to distribute processing for large enterprise environments. You can
run a Simple install to position all Deployment Server Components on a single computer
(most frequently used), or plan and perform a Custom install to distribute installation of
components across separate computers in the site. The Deployment Web Console can be
installed as part of the Deployment Server installation on any computer running
Microsoft IIS.
See Deployment Server components on page 335.
After installing Deployment Server components, you can remotely install Deployment
Agents on all types of computer resources across your organization: laptops, LAN and
Web servers, network switches, and so on. Windows computers and Linux computers
can be managed as a unified environment, with each client communicating through its
own Deployment agent to update inventory data and react to Deployment Server
commands and deployment tasks.
Select one of the following methods for installing a Deployment Server system:
z Simple install for Deployment Server
z Custom install for Deployment Server
z Thin client install
z Component install
To install Deployment Agents on the client computer, see Installing Deployment Solution
agents on page 351.
Note
You can also install the Deployment Server components remotely from the Symantec
Management Console.

Configuration.
2. Click Protocols for MSSQLSERVER.
