1.2 Intelligent Manageability

Intelligent Manageability consists of preinstalled software tools for the

computer and Compaq servers that assist in tracking, troubleshooting,

protecting, and maintaining the computer. It provides the following

functions:

nAsset Management: provides detailed configuration and diagnostic

information.

nFault Management: prevents, predicts, and alerts of impending

hardware problems.

nSecurity Management: protects unauthorized access to data and

components.

nConfiguration Management: optimizes the computer by providing the

latest drivers, utilities, and software, which are available on CD ROM

and the Compaq Web site at www.compaq.com/support/portables.

NOTE: For further help with Intelligent Manageability, select Startà

Compaq Information Center àIntelligent Manageability

Accessing the Web Agent

The computer may have a preinstalled Web Agent that allows computer

configuration information to be viewed using Web technology. To

access this feature, select StartàCompaq Information Center àInsight

Web Management.

If the computer does not have a preinstalled Web Agent, it can be

downloaded from the Compaq Web site at www.compaq.com.

Asset Management

Asset Management enables component information to be retrieved when

on the road or connected to the network.

Asset Management also enables the network administrator to remotely

retrieve information from any Compaq computer connected to the

network. The information can be used to assist in tracking and

maintaining the computer and its components. It provides the following

information:

Product Description 1-9

nInventory information—The network administrator can retrieve

information about the computer over the network by using Compaq

Insight Manager or any PC management tool provided by Compaq

Solution Partners. Asset control information retrieved from the

computer includes:

nManufacturer, model, and serial number of Compaq computers,

monitors, hard drives, battery packs, memory boards, processor

speeds, and operating systems

nSystem board and ROM revision levels

nBIOS settings

nDiagnostic information—Diagnostics for Windows includes

information on hard drives, ports, video, sound, and other

components. This application also allows multi-threaded tests to be

run on hardware components. If problems are found,

recommendations are provided.

All of the above information can be viewed, printed, or saved.

Fault Management

Fault Management features minimize downtime and data loss by

monitoring system performance and generating the following alerts:

nHard drive alert—provides 72-hour advance warning of impending

hard drive problems and can automatically start optional backup

software.

nSystemtemperature alert—reports overheating. As the system

temperature rises, this feature first adjusts fan speed and other

cooling components, then displays an alert, then shuts down the

system.

nBattery pack alert—reports charging problems and battery pack

failure.

nMonitor alert—diagnoses and displays external monitor operational

problems.

nMemory alert—reports memory board configuration changes when a

memory board is removed, added, or reconfigured. It also provides

the previous and current configurations for comparison.

The alerts work with or without network connection. If the computer is

not connected to the network, the network administrator cannot receive

alerts from the computer.

1-10 Product Description

Fault Management Alerts

Alerts can be enabled, disabled, and tested, and software can be set to

back up information whenever a hard drive alert occurs.

nWhile the computer is connected to a network, alerts pop up on the

computer display and are simultaneously reported to the network

console.

nSystem temperature alert—reports overheating. As the system

temperature rises, this feature first adjusts fan speed and other

cooling components, then displays an alert, then shuts down the

system.

NOTE: A battery charging problem alert is reported only on the

computer display.

nWhen the computer is not connected to a network, the user will

receive a local alert.

nTo set alerts, select the Intelligent Manageability icon in the system

tray.

Security Management

Security Management features customize system security.

nPower-On and Setup Passwords—prevent unauthorized access to

information and computer configuration.

nDriveLock—prevents unauthorized access to hard drives.

nDevice disabling—prevents unauthorized data transfer through

modems, serial ports, parallel ports, and infrared ports on the

computer and an optional docking station.

nQuickLock/QuickBlank—locks the keyboard and clears the screen.

nOwnership Tag—displays ownership information during system

restart.
