Chapter 5. Using Netfinity Manager
51
Remote Session
Use Remote Session to establish a fully active command session with any remote
Netfinity Manager system.
Remote System Manager
Use Remote System Manager to access and manage any Netfinity Manager service on
any Netfinity Manager system in the network. The Netfinity Manager system on the
network is organized into easy-to-manage logical groups that can be updated
automatically using the auto-discovery feature.
Remote Workstation Control
Remote Workstation Control can monitor or control the screen display of a remote
system that is running Netfinity Manager (or Client Services for Netfinity Manager).
Once you initiate a Remote Workstation Control session with another Netfinity
Manager system, you can passively monitor events that are occurring on the display
of the remote system or actively control the remote system desktop. When you initiate
an active Remote Workstation Control session, clicks and keystrokes that are entered
on your system are automatically passed to the remote system. With Remote
Workstation Control, you can remotely start programs, open and close windows,
enter commands, and much more.
Screen View
The Screen View service takes a "snapshot" of the system graphic display or any
remote system running Netfinity Manager or Client Services for Netfinity Manager
and displays it on the screen. These snapshots can be saved as bitmaps and viewed
later.
Security Manager
The Security Manager service can prevent unauthorized access to some or all of the
Netfinity Manager services. It uses incoming user ID and password combinations,
and is available for network use only.
Serial Connection Control
The Serial Connection Control service enables remote systems running Netfinity
Manager to access the system through a phone line and modem. With the Serial
Connection Control service, you do not have to be attached to a network to benefit
from the outstanding remote system access, monitoring, and management capabilities
of Netfinity Manager.
Note: The system must have a properly installed and configured modem that
supports at least 9600 baud for the Serial Connection Control service to
function.
Service Configuration Manager
Service Configuration Manager can save the configuration of a Netfinity Manager
service from a selected system to a service configuration file (SCF). Once created, SCF
files can be used by Event Scheduler to restore the configuration to the same system,
or it can be used (in conjunction with Event Scheduler) to duplicate that configuration
on other similar systems you choose.
