The Linux Scripting Toolkit for use with Altiris Deployment Solution provides two types of jobs:

Modular deployment tools, which are designed to be used individually to complete common deployment tasks, such as configuring pre-installation hardware and installing an operating system
Deployment solutions, which are designed to consolidate multiple deployment elements in a single Altiris job, such as scripted deployment and image-based cloning
