inserts multiple lines of client information automatically. A VBScript is run from
the Windows command line, as shown in Example 20-7.

Now, from the administrative CLI, run this command (Example 20-8).
Example 20-8 Running the macro to insert machine date into DRM
macro “c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSInfo\msinfo32bat.mac”
To view machine characteristics added to DRM, use the QUERY MACHINE
command, as shown in Example 20-9.
Example 20-9 Querying DRM for client machine information
query machine tripleeight f=d
Machine information stored by DRM can also be included in the DRM plan file.
This is the detailed disaster recovery file that is generated by the DRM
PREPARE command. In order to include a machine’s system information or
