Asset Control enables the network administrator to remotely
retrieve information from any Compaq computer connected to the
network. This information can be used to assist in tracking and
maintaining the computer and its components. It provides the
following information:
Inventory information—A network administrator can
retrieve information about the computer via the network by
using Compaq Insight Manager or any PC management tool
provided by Compaq Solution Partners. The following Asset
Control information can be retrieved:
Manufacturer, model, and serial number of Compaq
computers, monitors, hard drives, battery packs, memory
boards, processor speeds, and operating systems
Asset tag
System board and ROM revision levels
BIOS settings
Diagnostic information—Using Diagnostics for Windows
provides the performance status of hard drives, ports, video,
sound, and other components.
Once displayed, all of the above information can be viewed,
printed, or saved.
The Fault Management utilities minimize downtime and data loss
by monitoring system performance and generating the following
alerts:
Hard drive alert—warns you up to 72 hours in advance of
impending hard drive problems and can automatically start
optional backup software.
System temperature alert—reports overheating. As the
system temperatures rise, this utility first adjusts fan speed and
other cooling components, then displays an alert, then shuts
down the system.
Battery pack alert—reports charging problems and battery
pack failure.
