The CMI Softpaq is installed to each HP targeted device as part of the HPCA Agent Deployment. The HP Client Management Interface (CMI) provides enterprise managers and information technology professionals with an increased level of management instrumentation for HP business-class desktops, notebooks, and workstations.
CMI hardware-specific information is captured and available for reporting. Use the HP Specific Reports Reporting View in the Display Options section of the Reporting tab to create CMI hardware-related reports. (Select Inventory Management Reports,Hardware Reports, then HP Specific Reports to view CMI-related reporting options).
The following hardware related alerts are reported using the HP CMI and S.M.A.R.T. Drive Alert Monitoring:
