Desktop Management Interface (DMI)
This mainboard supports the
Desktop Management Interface (DMI)
, which is a new
method of providing enterprise management for personal computers. The main component
of DMI is the Management Information Format Database (MIF), which contains information
about the computer system and its components, such as BIOS version/vendor, CPU
speed/type, memory size/type, L1/L2 cache, port connectors (IDE, floppy, 2S/1P, USB,
keyboard, mouse, ), slots … etc. Using DMI, remote PC management software is able to
obtain various information about the system, including hardware profiles, capabilities,
operational status, installation dates, and other information about the system and its
components.
This DMI utility, DMICFG.EXE, allows you to add additional information, such as serial
numbers, vendor information, and enclosure/chassis configurations, into the MIF.
