Desktop Management
COMPAQ pioneered desktop manageability in 1995 with the introduction of
the industry's first fully manageable desktop personal computers. Since then,
Compaq has led an industry-wide effort to develop the standards and
infrastructure required to effectively deploy, configure, and manage desktop
PCs. Compaq Intelligent Manageability provides standards-based solutions
for managing and controlling desktops in a networked environment. Compaq
works closely with leading management software solution providers in the
industry to ensure compatibility between Intelligent Manageability and these
products. Intelligent Manageability is an important aspect of our broad
commitment to providing you with PC Lifecycle Solutions that assist you
during the four phases of the desktop PC lifecycle-planning, deployment,
management, and transitions.
This guide summarizes the capabilities and features of the four key
components of desktop management:
■ Initial Configuration and Deployment
■ Asset tracking and security
■ Fault notification and recovery
■ Software updating and management
The guide also contains an overview of the tools, utilities, and information
Compaq provides to help you successfully deploy manageable desktop PCs.
