SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server delivers a comprehensive set of time-saving installation, configuration, deployment and administration tools. With help from these server management tools, you can efficiently manage and secure your IT infrastructure. You can ensure your systems deliver maximum value to the business. These graphical and text-based tools manage single servers and groups of servers, and operate locally as well as remotely. They take a lot of the headache out of Linux server management, and make it easy to install and configure services, and patch and update your systems.
YaST: Single Linux Server Management
Included in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is YaST, a powerful suite of graphical tools for installation and configuration. You can use YaST to simplify installation and configure networks easily. YaST helps you implement the robust open source services included with the operating system–such as file and print, DNS, DHCP, and Apache web services, both physical and virtual. You can also use open APIs to write YaST plug-ins for your own applications. And what's more, plug-ins for key third-party software, such as SAP applications and Oracle databases, come pre-packaged with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server.
AutoYaST: Automated Linux Systems Management for Large Enterprises
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server also includes AutoYaST, which makes life much easier for large enterprises. AutoYaST uses control files to extend the functionality of YaST to larger groups of systems that share a similar environment and similar (but not necessarily identical) hardware, and perform similar tasks. With AutoYaST, you can deploy groups or subsets of fully configured systems in parallel and without user intervention. Thus, AutoYaST dramatically shortens installation times and reduces administration costs for enterprise software rollouts.
ZYpp: Software Management Subsystem
Included in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is ZYpp, the leading software management subsystem. ZYpp is at the core of the new software management stack powering YaST, the new command line package manager Zypper, and Novell ZENworks® Linux Management. It provides you with effective package management and a convenient, standards-based package management API.
ZYpp enables you to quickly and easily search for, install, remove, and update packages. Thanks to intelligent dependency resolution algorithms, it is the fastest update stack available on any Linux enterprise distribution. Systems that would have taken minutes or hours to update now take just seconds or minutes, saving you precious administration time.
CIM Standards
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is instrumented in accordance with the Distributed Management Task Force's (DMTF) Common Information Model (CIM) standard. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server includes a small footprint CIM broker (SFCB) to manage communication between the management clients and CIM providers. This communication is written against the Common Manageability Programming Interface (CMPI) and Web Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) specification. By adhering to these standards, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server can be managed by a wide range of third-party and Novell solutions that support the CIM standard. This drives down the cost of managing mixed IT environments that include Linux, Windows, and UNIX systems.
Enablement for ZENworks Linux Management
ZENworks Linux Management is a powerful and secure software management solution for Linux server, workstation and desktop systems. As your networks grow, you can use Novell ZENworks Linux Management to augment the YaST tools and provide centralized control over any Linux system in your enterprise. ZENworks Linux Management can provide desktop lockdown, imaging, remote control, inventory and software management. This makes it easy to manage your systems, and lowers your IT costs.
New for Service Pack 1
The capabilities of the ZYpp software management subsystem have been expanded with Service Pack 1 to support multiple installed kernels, and the CIM infrastructure has been enabled by default, simplifying user administration. WebYaST, a new web-based extension to YaST, has been added to enable administrative control and configuration of servers and appliances–both physical and virtual–using HTTP protocols. Now, administrators can conveniently configure and maintain their server systems remotely over the web.
