Dell OpenManage Client Instrumentation Reference Guide
Introduction
The Dell OpenManage Client Instrumentation (OMCI) software enables remote management application programs to access information about the client system, monitor the status of the client system, or change the state of the system, such as shutting it down
remotely. OMCI exposes, through standard interfaces, key system parameters that allow administrators to manage, inventory, monitor the system health of, and gather information on deployed Dell client systems.
Note: All classes or properties listed in the reference guide may not be supported on all Dell systems.
