Task Pane &
Summary Pane
The Task Pane and Summary Pane are in the bottom area of the
main Management Console window. They display the execution sta-
tus for each task. If there is more than one device for a listed task,
the status of each device will be listed.
Template Pane The Template Pane is in the top-right of the Management Console
main screen. The templates that are applicable to the listed client
devices are listed here.
Status Bar The Status Bar is shown at the very bottom of the main Management
Console window. Descriptions of various items in HP Device Man-
ager are displayed here when the mouse cursor moves over them; for
example, a description of each
Device Pane icon is displayed when
the mouse cursor moves over each icon.
EWF Enhanced Write Filter (EWF) provides the ability to write-protect a
run-time image. By redirecting all write requests to either a separate
disk partition or RAM, EWF allows the run-time image to maintain
the appearance of a writeable run-time image. Additionally,
Enhanced Write Filter provides the ability to deploy a run-time
image onto read-only media, such as a CD-ROM.
Agent Mode Agent Mode is the mode of the Management Agent to acquire tasks
from the Management Gateway. Through configurations to the
Agent mode, the agent can work at the NAT network without Gate-
way. The Agent mode can be either Push mode or Pull mode. Push
mode means the gateway sends the available task to the agent, and
Pull mode means the agent would require the task from the gateway
at regular intervals.
