I'm starting out with the Management layer, specifically the Change Management SMF, then I'll finish out the other Managment SMF's and eventually work through the rest of the Life Cycle. So far, it's made my job a lot easier. Since I work for a small company (less then 50 employees) I will probably end up removing some of the layers in SMF as it seems to be designed for enterprises.<br/><br/>-Chris MCSETue, 14 Jul 2009 13:50:27 Z2009-07-14T13:50:27Zhttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/MOF4/thread/3fd479e8-c197-4ed5-bf8b-b380fd89f489#6f4e70c7-ef52-4eec-8af8-cc5be522e244http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/MOF4/thread/3fd479e8-c197-4ed5-bf8b-b380fd89f489#6f4e70c7-ef52-4eec-8af8-cc5be522e244Cleber Marqueshttp://social.technet.microsoft.com/Profile/en-US/?user=Cleber%20MarquesMOF 4.0, one year after<p class=MsoNormal style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif'" lang=EN-US>Hi Chris,</span></p> <p class=MsoNormal style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:'Verdana','sans-serif'" lang=EN-US>Great initiative.
