LDCM
LANDesk Client Manager (LDCM) allows desktop management via the
Web, standard network, or dial-up connections. It is compatible with
the leading management specifications, such as Wired for
Management 2.0, Desktop Management Interface (DMI) v2.0, and
others.
The basic features of the LDCM are as follows:
System Information - helps locate available computers in your
network and collects general computer information like operating
system, protocols, addresses, etc.
Configuration Information - shows the configuration of every
device (i.e., BIOS, I/O ports, hard disks, network interface cards,
etc.) installed in every computer in a network.
Fault Management - checks the computers for hardware errors
and observes whether or not a certain device has exceeded its
threshold value. If so, the program notifies the system
administrator or take some action to protect it from further
damage.
LDCM may not be preloaded on your computer. In such a case, you will
need to install it. To do so, do the following:
1. Make sure that your computer is turned on.
2. Insert the Programs CD that came with your computer into the CD-
ROM/DVD-ROM/CD-R/W drive.
Caution! Make sure that the CD is properly inserted into the CD-
ROM/DVD-ROM/CD-R/W drive. Improper insertion may damage
both the CD and the disc drive. For instructions, please see “To
insert a CD/DVD into your computer’s CD-ROM/DVD-ROM/CD-RW
drive:” on page 21.
3. Follow all onscreen instructions until you finish the installation.
Note: LDCM currently supports Windows Me and Windows 2000.
