RES PowerFuse 2010 released
March 1, 2010
Last Friday, RES Software, released the new version of PowerFuse 2010!
To improve the usability of the RES PowerFuse Management Console and the RES PowerFuse features, the RES PowerFuse Management Console has been restructured and several features have been renamed.
The new structure of the Console reflects the logical grouping of features into their main area of effect. The Console is now divided into 5 main areas:
- Context, including Locations and Devices, Directory Services and Workspace Containers.
- Composition, including Managed Applications, User Installed Applications, Files and Folders, Data sources and User Settings.
- Security, containing Applications, Removable Disks, Files and Folders, Read-only Blanketing, Global Authorized Files and Network.
- Diagnostics, including Workspace Analysis, Agents and Usage Tracking.
- Setup, including Licensing, the Datastore node, Reliability and Integration.
The same structure is also reflected in the Workspace Analysis overview
As of this release Microsoft Windows 2000 is no longer supported as a workstation platform for running RES PowerFuse.
Desktop Sampler
One of the new features of RES PowerFuse is the Desktop Sampler technology. When launching the Desktop Sampler it will sample which applications, printers and data are used by which users at which locations, irrespective of the way in which these settings are managed (manually, scripting, RES PowerFuse, etc.). It stores this information as a RES PowerFuse sample file (.DTS). The Workspace Designer (on page 12) uses these files to analyze the sampled information.
The Desktop Sampler needs to be installed on each computer that you want to sample. It consists of a single .MSI file, which is located in the RES PowerFuse program folder.
