TrueSight Server Automation

Drive greater consistency, security, and reliability through policy-based application of operational, security, and regulatory guidelines.

• Harden deployments and maintain compliance with a full cycle of system discovery, drift detection, remediation, and reporting
• Achieve compliance twice as fast with pre-configured policies for CIS, DISA, HIPAA, PCI, SOX, NIST, and SCAP
• Integrate with change control to create historical, auditable records to check compliance of any system at any time

Reduce the attack surface quickly by managing change, configuration, and patching activities to close vulnerabilities.

• Prioritize vulnerabilities based on severity and business impact with TrueSight Vulnerability Management integration, so teams can make security decisions that also protect uptime and stability
• Increase IT efficiency by up to 200% with a scalable, closed-loop for automated remediation
• Optimize maintenance windows for physical, virtual, and cloud-based data centers

Automate the patching process including patch acquisition, analysis, deployment, scheduling, installation, and change tracking.

• Download patch catalog information from vendors or third parties and analyze servers
• Create smart groups representing applications or business services with separate patching jobs
• Schedule patches to fit maintenance windows that meet business needs
• Use ad hoc tasks or Network Shell (NSH) to automate rolling patch implementations for clustered servers
• Get real-time status of patch jobs in process
• Integrate with ITSM to open and close change tickets automatically

Provision, configure, inspect, update, audit, and secure cross-platform servers with a single, multi-platform solution that improves administrator efficiency.

• Perform ad hoc administrative tasks such as configuration inspection, virtual machine creation, or snapshot creation, all through a single interface
• Run network shell (NSH) commands or your pre-existing scripts across multiple platforms, and run Powershell scripts natively, to automate end-to-end tasks
• Execute job qualification checks to set the number of targeted servers to improve deployment quality and reliability
• Provision servers with flexible methods including unattended, image-based, script-based, or template-based installs
• Accelerate delivery of software updates or full applications as part of DevOps processes
• Capture gold master images and apply to other servers and then manage deviations
