Looking to see what other orgs of about 400-500 users do. We're effectively a software developement shop, so we have a couple hundred servers (of which about 30 are in my arena, ton of dev ones that only developers maintain)), plus about 450 workstations. The issue we're how best to miantain the environment - specifically the "middle" where antvirus, patching, backups and software deployment land.
Specifically I'm thinking backups and antivirus .We currently use Tivoli for our servers and workstations - the trick being we only back up one folder in folks' workstations. The Se team owns/operate the entire Tivoli system, the problem is we run into enough issues that going between the Service Desk guys and the SE team it's cumbersome to resolve issues. I'm wondering at what point the SD guys might want to roll with their own backup solution, or perhaps is there a better way to manage our current setup? Antivirus is almost the reverse of this as I manage our AV, including all the AV on our servers...nothing like a fuzzy line..
