Caldera showcases Volution Manager, makes preview publicly available

Caldera International, Inc. (Nasdaq: CALD) today began previewing a pre-release
version of Caldera Volution Manager 1.1 and will begin shipping the new version during the first quarter of
2002. Caldera is extending the web-based systems management capabilities of Volution Manager to support the
latest versions of all major distributions of Linux as well as Caldera UNIX products. In addition, Caldera is
introducing several new systems management features in Volution Manager to help system administrators and
solution providers save time, scale resources, and ease deployments in a cost effective manner.

Caldera(r) Volution(tm) Manager is a secure, web-based, systems management solution that reduces the cost of
deploying and managing established versions of Linux and Caldera OpenServer, UnixWare and Open Unix. Volution
Manager does so by enabling secure, remote management, monitoring and updating of multiple systems through a
browser. Volution Manager 1.1 has several new enhancements including: 
- Extended platform support that unifies management of multiple platforms into one interface
- New install options that simplify reviews, evaluations and deployments
- New Wizards that simplify common tasks and reduce the initial learning curve
- New status and diagnostic features that reduce troubleshooting time and allows greater control
- Integration with Compaq Insight Manager that provides a comprehensive management solution for Linux and
Caldera UNIX products on Compaq hardware
- New customer response capabilities to monitored events that improves response and uptime for troubled
systems
- Integration with Volution Online providing an Internet delivered, proactive software management service for
Linux and UNIX systems

"Caldera has a unique and powerful solution in the market because they provide both a management product and
service to customers through Volution Manager and Volution Online," said Dr. Bill Claybrook, Research
Director for industry research firm Aberdeen Group. "Caldera is making a good move to extend the management
capabilities of Volution Manager 1.1 to support the latest versions of all major Linux distributions as well
as their UNIX operating systems with OpenServer, UnixWare and Open Unix. CIOs will clearly make their IT
organizations more effective and save time and money by managing their systems with Volution Manager."

"Volution Manager 1.1 is a great example of how Caldera is adding value for our customers and partners beyond
our operating systems," said Ransom Love, president and CEO, Caldera International. "We've seen a great deal
of interest from our customers and partners in ways that we can better help them manage their systems and
we're extending that capability with Volution Manager 1.1 to all of our UNIX customers and partners and those
who have deployed Linux in their environments. Customers and partners will save valuable time and money by
