Dell System Management (OpenManage) 7.2 is the last version supporting

IT Assistant (ITA). Starting Systems Management 7.2, the availability of IT

Assistant on the System Management Tools and Documentation (SMTD)

DVD is removed. There are no future versions planned for ITA. We

recommend to use Dell OpenManage Essentials (OME) as replacement for

ITA. You can directly upgrade your existing ITA to OME.

Introducing Dell OpenManage IT Assistant

Dell OpenManage IT Assistant provides a central point of access to monitor

and manage systems on a local area network (LAN) or wide area network

(WAN). By allowing an administrator a comprehensive view across the

enterprise, IT Assistant can increase system uptime, automate repetitive

tasks, and prevent interruption in critical business operations.

Simplifying System Administration

You can use IT Assistant to do the following:

• "Identify the Systems for Remote Management"

• "Generate a Consolidated View of All Your Systems"

• "Create Alert Filters and Actions"

• "Create Customized Discovery and Inventory Reports"

• "Create Tasks That Enable Configuration Management From a

Central Console"

• "Install Dell Agents on Dell Systems"

• "Measure the Performance of Systems"

• "Monitor the Power and Energy Consumption of Dell Systems"
