1 Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Centralized Desktop Management at LLNL A Major Paradigm Shift CDM David Frye This work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract DE-AC52-07NA27344. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, P. O. Box 808, Livermore, CA 94551

2 What is CDM?  Centralized Desktop Management  Project started in April, 2008  Centralize desktop management for basic IT functions: Patch Management Security Configuration Software Distribution Antivirus Active Directory  Initial scope: 1 Principal Directorate (PD), ~2,000 PCs UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

3 CDM: Part of a larger whole CDM Centralized Networks Central Help Desk Change Management Service Catalog Service Level Agreements  ITIL based framework  End-to-end managed computing environment  Centrally controlled UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

4 Why CDM?  Cost savings Greater automation Reduced people/process redundancy  Greater IT Efficiency Stronger security More consistency and cohesion Greater innovation  Tighter Dev/Ops relationship UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

5 Stated CDM Success Metrics:  CDM Version 1: 80% of all CDM clients will have Microsoft critical patches applied within 30 days of release from Microsoft (initial value: ~40%).  CDM Version 2 (10/2008): 90% of all CDM clients will have ALL Microsoft security patches applied with 15 days of release from Microsoft 3 rd party security patches will be applied for: AdobeReader/Flash, Java, QuickTime, Firefox UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

6 Desktop Management – Traditional Model NIF Delegated IT Operations Central ServicesPD IT OPS … Admin No central implementation Loose integration of services Inconsistent feedback cycle Redundancy of effort OPERATIONS UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

7 New Paradigm: CDM  Remove Operations Wall  Move Admin Operations into ITSD  Maintain Tier 2 support in PD  Establish cooperative management team Directorate IT Admin Tier 2 Support UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

8 CDM: The People  2 People Brought in from PD 1 for Patch, A/V, Compliancy, SW Distribution 1 for Active Directory administration Both reported to respective service leads for technical direction  Tier 2 desktop support consolidated under single manager UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

9 CDM: The Process – System Binning  Instrumented via Active Directory Groups  Categorization based on Efficiency: High  Most computers  Focus on automation  Little end user control  Mobile computers/VIPs  Focus on flexibility  More end user control  Critical Systems  Focus on Impact  Total end user control MediumLow UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

10 CDM: Service Contract  Service Behavior based on Bin UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

11 CDM: Tools SelfPatchPresence Awareness COEConfigSLAM UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

12 CDM: Dashboards Summary Information Key Performance Indicators Trending Internet Monitoring  Critical communications tool  Keeps everyone on same page  Demonstrates effectiveness UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

13 CDM: Results 1 st 3 days of CDM v1 1 st 3 days of CDM v2  Tangible Results  Low user impact  Centrally managed UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

14 CDM: Future  More Services! Improve A/V & Active Directory Offering User Data Management NAPS compliancy automation System Performance Management (“govinator”)  More Customers Expand to more PDs Apply same binning, service contract and tools UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001

15 Questions? THANK YOU! UCRL: LLNL-PRES-413001
