Better Altiris Deployment Solution Job Shortcuts

While it’s nothing new that you can use the Altiris Exit Codes to schedule another job and essentially create a shortcut, if you drag and drop large groups of jobs quickly enough, some jobs can run before other jobs are scheduled and things can get out of the expected order. To alleviate this issue you can set the “shortcut” job to run on the deployment server. This will allow the “shortcut” jobs to schedule their corresponding jobs more quickly.
