Extending SCCM to heterogenous environments

This was a session presented by Quest to talk about their products that can further enhance SCCM. It is designed to improve the ability of SCCM into non windows areas and help achieve a better ROI.
These are branded Quest Management Extensions (QMX) and contain the following functionality:

• Support for non Windows OS - Red Hat, Suse (server and desktop), OSX, ESX, HPUX via agents.
• Agentless (reduced functionality) for Novell, Ubuntu and network devices such as printers, switches, routers and mainframes.
• Can add non windows OS into Active Directory.
• Patch and software distribution to the above (1st bullet).

QMX for SCCM 2007 are the above except network devices, if that functionality is required you also need to purchase QMX for Device Manager.
