Hello,
I am new to Altiris and I have installed Altiris on a physical server in a test environment.
> Altiris notification server version 7.1
> Symantec Management console version 7.1.8400
I was able to discover machines connected in the network. I have domain admin privileges so I dont think there is an issue at the permission level.
Problem:
When I try to push the Altiris agent to the client computers (Win 7 64bit Enterprise), I see the following description in the altiris console "Starting 'Symantec Management Agent install service' "
While in the client machine, services.msc -> Altiris agent service status is empty. If I try to start the service, it shows started for some time and then becomes 'empty' within few seconds. As a result, Altiris agent is not installed on the client machine and no Altiris folder is created in program files / program files (x86) folder. No log file is created in system32 folder as well.
I checked the domain controller time and Altiris server (NS) time and all are in sync (GMT). While workstation time is set to IST.
Server is able to contact client machine and port 80 is open. I have tried Altiris plugin installation manually but it is not properly reflected in the Altiris console. I dont want to perform manual Altiris plugin installation.
Please help.
I did Altiris installation on server and the next step is to push agents to the clients machines right ? I am I missing some thing here ?
Thanks,
amvj
