Hi, I would like to inquiry about the SCE2010 as I new on it. SCE 2010 allow user to install software/updates without user intervention?(silent install) SCE 2010 allow user to install software/updates even without admin right? SCE 2010 able to work across Parent and child domain whereby SCE server place in parent domain? SCE2010 able to work in multi trusted domain? ?(e.g contoso.com & ex.contoso.com) Thanks for the answer

Hi, Here are my opinions: 1. This depends on the software package. Here is an example: How to Deploy Microsoft Office 2010 by Using System Center Essentials 2010 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff622331.aspx 2. As far as I know, the software/update can be installed when the user logs on the computer has not administrator unless you choose the option “Publish update(s) to 'Add/Remove Programs'” when approving the package. For more information, please refer to: Deployment of optional software requires administrator rights http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/systemcenterdevelopment/thread/f2ff976b-35b7-4232-8d9f-4b24a87df47e/ 3. Yes. 4. Yes. System Center Essentials 2010 can manage the computers in a trusted domain. For more information about software deployment and update management in System Center Essentials 2010, please refer to: Software Deployment in Essentials http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb422945.aspx Update Management in Essentials http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb437260.aspx Regarding question 3 and 4, please also refer to: Supported Topologies and Performance Guidance for System Center Essentials 2010 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb422797.aspx Hope this helps.
