Systems with Intel® AMT can be remotely discovered, maintained, diagnosed, and
in some cases repaired, even if the system can’t boot its local operating system or
if a management console can’t communicate with its software agent, as long as
the system is connected to power and the network. The HP rp5800 includes Intel®
AMT to provide a comprehensive manageability solution to retailers who want to
reduce or eliminate costly service visits.
Intel® AMT also allows retailers to reduce power costs by turning systems off
during long idle periods and enabling them to be remotely turned back on at a
convenient time to perform management tasks. Combining these features with
LANDesk Management Suite provides a simple, robust manageability solution that
lets you spend more time with your customers and growing your business.
