USB Device Procedure
The default console package provided is the Dell™ Client Management (DCM) application. This section provides the procedure
to set up and configure Intel
® AMT with the DCM package. As mentioned earlier in the document, several other packages are
available through third-party vendors.
The computer must be configured and seen by the DNS server before you begin this process. Also, a USB storage device is
required and must conform to the requirements listed in Configuration Service--Using a USB Device .
NOTE: The nature of management software is that it is not always dynamic or real time. In fact, sometimes if you tell a
computer to do something, such as to reboot, you may just have to do it again before it will work.
1. Format a USB device with the FAT16 file system and no volume label and then set it aside.
2. Open the Altiris
®
Dell Client Manager application by double clicking the desktop icon or through the Start menu.
3. Select AMT Quick Start from the left navigation menu to open the Altiris Console.
