Group Policy Templates

Administrators can quickly and easily apply the same Dell Command | Power Manager settings across multiple systems using the

Group Policy feature in Windows Server. For more information on Windows Group Policies, see the TechNet article at http://

technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/bb310732.aspx.

After applying a Group Policy Template to a system, end users cannot change the settings associated with that template.

To use Group Policy Templates:

1. Install the Group Policy Management Console.

2. Install the Group Policy Templates.

3. Optionally, customize one or more policies.

4. Apply policies to specic systems, groups, or users.

NOTE:

If all of the available settings are restricted by the administrator, the user will not be able to change any conguration

components. However, if the administrator stipulates only some of the settings, the remaining settings will be available for the

user to congure.

Installing The Group Policy Management Console

Dell Command | Power Manager uses the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) in Windows Server to administer Group

Policies. The GPMC feature is included in Windows Server 2008 and newer; however, it does not automatically install with the

operating system. An administrator must install the GPMC on the domain server using Server Manager or Windows PowerShell. For

detailed instructions on installing the GPMC, see the TechNet article at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725932.aspx.

In addition to installing the GPMC, an administrator must set Active Directory as a server role. In Server Manager, right-click Roles,

and then click Add Roles. On the Server Roles screen, select Active Directory Domain Services, and complete the wizard.
