Version 3.0.4.0 Issue date June 15, 2007 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT THIS PACKAGE DOES The package provides an autonomic feature that utilizes the unused computing power on your system to perform a variety of maintenance tasks. You can select the tasks you want the Maintenance Manager to perform, and configure it to keep these tasks up-to-date without affecting the system performance when you are using the computer. Performing these maintenance tasks on a regular basis helps to ensure that your computer operates at peak performance. The Maintenance Manager tasks improve performance by increasing your available hard drive space, making more memory space available, increasing processing speed, and checking for viruses. The tasks available through the Maintenance Manager program include: - Symantec AntiVirus scan - Norton AntiVirus scan - Disk Defragment operation - Disk Cleanup operation - Disk Backup operation - ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery backup operation The Maintenance Manager program enables you to run tasks in whisper mode, which automatically limits the resources used to run the selected maintenance tasks based upon the level of resources you designate for the Maintenance Manager and the current level of available resources on the computer. The whisper mode feature maximizes the performance of the selected tasks while working to minimize the impact on the performance of other applications. If this package has been installed, updating (overwrite-installing) this package will fix problems, add new functions, or expand functions as noted below. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CHANGES IN THIS RELEASE Version 3.0.4.0 [Important updates] Nothing.
