CIM Object Manager (CIMOM) interface, Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) stack, or SNMP agent, whereas Dell
Command | monitor for Linux retrieves this information through Open Management Infrastructure (OMI) interface.
Dell Command | Monitor enables IT administrators to remotely collect asset information, modify BIOS settings, receive proactive
notifications about potential fault conditions, and get alerts for potential security breaches. In the systems running Windows,
these alerts are available as events in the NT event log, WMI event, or SNMP traps v1. For the systems running Linux, these
alerts are received as Syslog, OMI event, or Application log.
Dell Command | Monitor for Windows can be integrated into a console such as Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager
by directly accessing the CIM information, or through other console vendors who have implemented the Dell Command |
Monitor integration. Also, you can create custom scripts to target key areas of interest. Sample scripts are available at Dell
Knowledge Library Dell Command | Monitor page. You can use these scripts to monitor inventory, BIOS settings, and system
health.
NOTE: Default installation does not enable SNMP support. For more information about enabling SNMP support for Dell
Command | Monitor for Windows, see Dell Command | Monitor Installation Guide at dell.com/support.
