When the HP Management Agent on the client receives the task,
the client will display a warning message indicating that the
device will reboot in 15 seconds.
The client will shutdown then start-up in DOS mode and run the
utility which copies the image file from the FTP Repository to
its flash storage. Note that this may take some time.
The progress of the task will be indicated in the
the Console.
When the task has been completed successfully, the client will
reboot with the new image and the
task has finished.
The ChangeSID utility allows you to modify the computer SID
(Security ID) in the Microsoft NT/2000/XP operating system.
Note: Only the local administrator is authorized to run this utility.
SID information is kept in a registry file which is used for computer
and user identification in a workgroup or domain environment. The
ChangeSID utility creates a new random SID and replaces the old
one.
To use the ChangeSID utility, log on as a local administrator and
run ChangeSID.exe from a command line:
ChangeSID.exe <options>
where <options> can include the following:
-m Change the computer's name to NEO- plus the last 6 digits of
its MAC address.
-n <new computername>
Assign a new computer name. Note that if -m is specified, this
option will be ignored.
-sid Change the computer SID.
-all Produces the same result as if you specified"-m -sid".
