Dell OpenManage Client Instrumentation

Dell OpenManage Client Instrumentation is software that enables remote
management application programs such as IT Assistant to do the following:
• Access information about your computer, such as how many processors
it has and what operating system it is running
• Monitor the status of your computer, such as listening for thermal
alerts from temperature probes or hard drive failure alerts from storage
devices
• Change the state of your computer, such as updating its BIOS or
shutting it down remotely
Dell OpenManage Client Instrumentation can be installed on computers
like yours, which, when set up on a network with IT Assistant, are called
managed systems. For more information about Dell OpenManage Client
Instrumentation, see the Dell OpenManage Client Instrumentation User's
Guide available on the Dell website.
