HP Management
The HP Management Console is the user interface of HP Device Manager. Several HP Management
Consoles can interact with an HP Management Server. The console allows system administrators to
view details for each controlled device, organize device trees, create and maintain remote job definitions,
and monitor tasks sent out to devices.
HP Management Server
The HP Management Server controls agents through the HP Management Gateway. Tasks, stored as
Task Templates on the server, can be sent to each agent through each agent’s respective gateway to
perform commands as required.
HP Management Gateway
The HP Management Gateway serves as the link between devices and the HP Management Server.
Devices register with the gateway when they are started. The machine installed with the HP
Management Gateway also normally contains the PXE Server installed by HP Device Manager.
Device Agent
The HP Management Agent is a software component installed on thin client devices so that HP Device
Manager can interact with them. Agents are embedded into each HP operating system to enable Device
Manager to manage devices out-of-the-box (however, agents on older devices may need to be
upgraded). Agents get task commands, execute the commands and report on their status.
FTP Server
The FTP server is where files are stored in a repository of components, images, etc. that can be uploaded
from or downloaded to the agents at the request of the HP Management Server. You can create a
repository on more than one FTP server. The repository on an FTP server is referred to as the "FTP
Repository" in dialog boxes and in this User Manual to distinguish it from the HP Management Server
Repository (the "Server Repository").
