Install, Configure, and Update with YaST
SUSE Linux Enteprise Desktop comes with YaST, a comprehensive installation, configuration and administration suite. Unique to the SUSE Linux Enterprise platform, YaST is the secret weapon for clean upgrades. It also includes tools to help you configure your desktop from end-user settings to network connections. Thanks to YaST, you barely have to spend any time on Linux updates.
AutoYaST is a time-saving deployment tool that automatically performs installations and configurations. Since SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop shares a common code base with the entire SUSE Linux Enterprise platform, you have access to AutoYaST for an enterprise installation and deployment. AutoYaST allows for unattended and automated installation, so your upgrades don't have to burn cycles for your skilled IT workers. With AutoYaST, administrators can create a consistent baseline configuration for new installations in large or expanding deployments, and the upgrade virtually takes care of itself.
Keep Things Patched with ZENworks Linux Management
SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop also comes with Novell ZENworks® Linux Management. ZENworks Linux Management complements YaST by enabling IT administrators to centrally deploy, upgrade, and update their entire data centers inside the firewall. This enables dramatic IT savings and simplicity. Administrators can easily manage updates to your machine against a ZENworks server. They keep your software patched and updated through ZENworks Linux Management, making traditional Windows reboots and updates things of the past. This industry-leading solution offers a significant cost advantage over home-grown or competing solutions, making complex upgrades a thing of the past.
