Synchronizing Intel SCS and Notification Server resources
If you want to run out-of-band management tasks (for example, the Real-Time
Console Infrastructure tasks) on the computers with Intel AMT, you must enable
and run the Resource Synchronization policy. This policy synchronizes the Intel
SCS and Notification Server databases. Synchronization is critical if you set up
and configured your Intel AMT computers with a random password. This policy
lets you map the Intel AMT administrative credentials that are stored in the Intel
SCS database to the appropriate Notification Server resources.
This policy also creates new resources for the computers that do not have the
Altiris Agent installed.
After the synchronization is complete, Altiris solutions can find Intel AMT
administrative credentials in the Intel SCS database for each of the computers
that you want to manage.
After the task runs, the computers that are set up and configured with Out of
Band Management Component, appear in the Configured Intel AMT Computers
filter.
