4-8 Managing System ResourcesClient Manager can be used to “get” attribute information on systemcomponents. It can also be used to “set” attribute values in real time.Monitoring CapabilitiesYour system has a chip mounted on the system board that supports manynew and advanced real-time monitoring capabilities used by DMI. Thischip provides the following features:! an integrated temperature sensor with configurable interruptgeneration based on upper and lower temperature limits! a power supply monitor with configurable interrupt generation basedon upper and lower voltage limits! chassis intrusion detection with interrupt generation capabilities.To take advantage of these features, DMI has expanded its interface in thefollowing areas:! Interrupts may be enabled or disabled.! High and low limits can be set and are displayed for temperature andpower supply voltages.! Current readings are displayed for temperature, power supplyvoltages, and chassis state.! Interrupts can be detected when “out of range” conditions occur. Userprompts are displayed to alert the user to a potentially harmfulcondition.Using the Chassis Intrusion Notification FeatureLANDesk Client Manager allows you to monitor your system againstchassis intrusion. Whenever the chassis is opened, LANDesk ClientManager logs the intrusion and reports the incident in a screen messagethe next time the system is booted. The message appears in a LANDeskClient Manager Notification window. This window appears every timethe system is rebooted until the report is cleared.Close the notification window to remove the message from the screen.Clear the message to prevent it from appearing again the next time thesystem is rebooted.
