by Cameron Sturdevant
2Policy Assistant
New wizards helped me create a policy to install packages on my Mac systems.

Here you see the management tab options, including Policies and Managed Preferences modules, both improved in this version of Casper Suite 7.2.
4Create Managed Preference
I imported ready-made preferences from the Manifest Destiny project, seen lower right.
5Network Scanner
I added my Mac systems using the network scanner in Casper Suite 7.2. I was somewhat surprised that .104 got added; that’s a VMware vSphere 4 host. I have to go check that out!
6Adding Another System
Here you see my fake test user Brian Sturdevant’s computer getting added to the Casper Suite inventory.
7Remote Control
Here you see that I’m about to take control of Brian’s MacBook Pro.
8Software Update
Casper Suite uses Apple Software Update to get the necessary patches for distribution.
9Patch Policy
Here’s an example of a policy to deploy updates to my Mac systems from the central update server.
