DIGITAL ClientWORKS and DMI (DIGITAL PC 5510
Only)
ClientWORKS is a Desktop Management Interface (DMI) based software application
that has been developed by Digital Equipment Corporation.
ClientWORKS for Windows 95 and Windows NT Workstation can be used to help
you, the system manager, or system administrator to identify the computer’s current
hardware configuration. This feature is useful, for example, if you need to see if you
have sufficient memory or a large enough hard disk drive for the applications you
want to run. System managers or system administrators can access ClientWORKS
data through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) consoles. This feature
means the company can protect its current investment in SNMP software and
network monitors. Other features include:
•
If there is a known computer component that needs to be replaced, under
Windows 95 or Windows NT Workstation, a system manager or
administrator can access ClientWORKS and get the Field Replaceable Unit
(FRU) part number. This part number can then be relayed to the service
provider to expedite ordering.
•
Serial numbers can easily be identified to obtain warranty service.
•
The amount and type of computer memory you have installed can easily be
identified using ClientWORKS. This is especially useful if you need to know
the computer’s capabilities prior to loading software.
•
A system manager or administrator can use ClientWORKS to remotely
access computer configurations that are attached to a network. This feature
enables a system manager or administrator to easily maintain an accurate
equipment log.
Refer to the supplied ClientWORKS factory installed on-line help or the DIGITAL System
Software CD for detailed information on using or installing either program.
