Documentation
DM/Suite's documentation comes in three sections that correspond to the software's three components. I used draft manuals for my tests, and the only problem I noticed was the manuals' repeated references to Windows 95 as the client machine, with no references to Win98 or NT Workstation. I found no technical problems with the software's documentation.
The DM/Administrator guide tells you how to administer the virtual domains and includes step-by-step instructions. This document clearly explains procedures and includes useful figures to aid understanding.
The DM/Manager guide explains the functions you can perform within NT domains. The guide includes all the basic instructions you need for domain migration and checking.
The DM/Reporter guide tells you how to report on live and historical data for domain-management status. This document thoroughly explains how to present data in a meaningful manner.
A Winner
DM/Suite's smooth user interface (UI) makes the software simple to manage. In previous versions, you needed to run multiple executables to perform actions, and the product's features lacked fluidity. The current release offers one-stop domain controls for easy management. The software provides useful features that native NT tools lack. I'm anxious to see how FastLane improves the product when Microsoft releases Win2K. Based on the software's current performance, I predict it will be a winner well into the future.
