My manager has asked me to get the Compaq Insight Manager working so that all of our networked PC's (all 500 of them) can be managed remotely from a server.
Now, I know that the Manager software is installed on a particular server that i am to use already. It's the desktops that i am unsure about. I know that they need to be configured with the Intelligent Manageability Agent, but what for? Does an SNMP trap need to be set up to direct it to the IP address of the server with the Management software? How in the management software do I set it to receive the information? Where can I get the latest Mangement software for the server?
I know that I am seriously lacking knowledge in this area, so any pointers or answers to my questions would be excellent. If anyone knows of any web sites that I can have a look at, apart from compaq.com, that would be great too.
Many thanks
Darren
