Desktop Management Guide
HP Client Management Solutions provides standards-based solutions
for managing and controlling desktops, workstations, and notebook
PCs in a networked environment. HP pioneered desktop
manageability in 1995 with the introduction of the industry’s first
fully manageable desktop personal computers. HP is a patent holder
of manageability technology. Since then, HP has led an industry-wide
effort to develop the standards and infrastructure required to
effectively deploy, configure, and manage desktops, workstations, and
notebook PCs. HP works closely with leading management software
solution providers in the industry to ensure compatibility between HP
Client Management Solutions and these products. HP Client
