Settings — Reference
In the Settings page, you can configure the OpenManage Essentials console. You can set the SMTP and
proxy server information, adjust session timeout, database maintenance schedules, restart services,
create custom URL menu items, enable or disable internal alerts, observe daylight savings time, and
enable or disable the ActiveX features.
NOTE: After modifying the general settings, click Apply to save the changes. Navigating to another
portion of the console without clicking Apply resets the settings to the previously saved
preferences.
