Introducing Systems Management Server Version 2.0

For most organizations, managing information systems has become an essential, yet complex operation. Microsoft® Systems Management Server version 2.0 (SMS) is designed to help you meet the technical and management challenges of modern systems information management. By using an open architecture that is both distributed and scalable, and by expanding its functionality with links to the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) and other Microsoft® BackOffice applications, SMS can help you automate change and configuration management.

Organizations of many sizes and structures can reap the benefits of SMS. Whether your organization is housed in a suite of offices in one building or in multiple international locations, you can configure SMS to work for you.
