− The system is running on Microsoft Windows NT based operating systems such as Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Vista. − For Windows Vista or later systems, .NET Framework 4.0 or later is installed. Installation Procedure For information and procedure for installing Command | Monitor, see the Command | Monitor – Installation Guide, available at dell.com/clientsystemsmanagement.
• To install and operate Command | Monitor, .NET Framework 4.0 or later is required on Windows operating systems. • For systems configured as RAID through Intel Rapid Storage Technology, if the RAID is in ‘verify and fix’ state, DC | M does not create instances of DCIM_PhysicalDiskView and DCIM_VirtualDiskView. The ‘verify and fix’ is a transition state and the RAID volume is engaged for handling the corresponding commands. • In silent mode (unattended) of installation, the system may restart itself.
