38 Intel vPro OOB Management Extensions

Task Que ue

Software Prerequisites

Before setting up Intel vPro OOB on your computer:

• Prepare Active Directory Domain Services for out-of-band management.

For more information see the Microsoft TechNet article at

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc161814.aspx

• Provision your system running DCIP for ConfigMgr to run Intel Active

Management Technology (AMT). For more information on AMT

provisioning see the Microsoft TechNet article at

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc161806.aspx.

• Export the provisioning certificate hash to all the AMT client systems you

want to manage through your system running DCIP for ConfigMgr. For

more information, see USB Provisioning.

• For In-Band shutdown to work correctly the system running DCIP for

ConfigMgr needs to have Windows Powershell version 2.0 installed and

WinRM configured. For more information on configuring WinRM, see

Configuring WinRM.

• When using DCIP for ConfigMgr out-of-band provisioning for clients,

verify the Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM)

agent is not installed on those clients. If the SCCM agent has been

installed on client systems and the agent has been detected by SCCM,

then you can use SCCM in-band provisioning with those client systems.

NOTE: You can perform the check by using the SCCM console to view the

client column of SCCM collections.
