Desktop Management
HP Intelligent Manageability provides standards-based solutions for managing and controlling
desktops, workstations, and notebook PCs in a networked environment.
The capabilities and features of the seven key components of desktop management are:
Initial configuration and deployment
ROM flash
Security
Support for specific features described in this guide may vary by model or software version.
3.1 Initial Configuration and Deployment
HP computers come with a preinstalled system software image. After a brief software
“unbundling” process, the computer is ready to be used.
A customized software image may be deployed by:
Installing additional software applications after unbundling the preinstalled software image.
Using software deployment tools, such as Altiris Deployment Solutions, to replace the
preinstalled software with a customized software image.
Using a disk cloning process to copy the contents from one hard drive to another.
The best deployment method depends on your information technology environment and
processes. The PC Deployment section of the Solutions and Services Web site
http://
h18000.www1.hp.com/solutions/pcsolutions
provides information to help you select the best
deployment method.
The Restore Plus! CD, ROM-based setup, and ACPI hardware provide further assistance with
recovery of system software, configuration management and troubleshooting, and power
management.
3.2 ROM Flash
The computer comes with a reprogrammable flash ROM (read only memory). By establishing a
setup password in Computer Setup (F10) Utility, you can protect the ROM from being
unintentionally updated or overwritten. This is important to ensure the operating integrity of the
computer. Should you need or want to upgrade your ROM, you may:
Order an upgraded ROMPaq™ diskette from HP.
Download the latest ROMPaq images from http://www.hp.com/support.
