5 Installing HP Toptools agents on desktops, notebooks, and PC
Companions
5.1 Overview
This chapter discusses the installation procedures for HP desktop and notebook devices, including HP
Vectra, HP e-PC, and HP Kayak PCs; HP Omnibook mobile computers; and HP Jornada PC
Companions. If discovery is initiated after the HP Toptools Device Manager has been installed, the All
Devices group can be used to determine which devices on the network require agent installation.
In the above example, discovery has been run and many PCs have been discovered, both with and
without agents. The systems with an entry in the DMI column already have agents loaded on them, as do
the systems with three slashes (///) in the WBEM column. In this example, agents are still required on 6
systems: ovwpc540, ovwpc543, ovwpc554, ovwpc561, ovwpc566, and ovwpc586. Systems with Windows
2000 or Windows XP that do not have agents installed will have two slashes (//) in the WBEM column.
This is useful for determining which version of the HP Toptools agent needs to be deployed to device.
Please refer to Appendix C – HP Toptools Desktop Agents Matrices for the proper agents to install for
each type of HP desktop device.

5.2 Installation of HP Toptools for Desktops and HP Toptools for Omnibook Agents
As of HP Toptools 5.0, there are multiple agents for HP Vectra and Kayak PCs, as well as for HP
Omnibook mobile PCs. For systems running Windows NT, Windows 9X, or Windows ME, HP Toptools
utilizes a DMI based agent. For systems with Windows 2000 or Windows XP, HP Toptools utilizes a WMI
based agent that provides HP extensions to the WMI core in Windows 2000. Always obtain the latest
drivers from the HP Toptools web site at
http://www.hp.com/toptools .
- Note -
Stop monitoring services, such as virus scanning, during the installation process.
Do not use accented characters, symbols, or spaces in any fields or for directory names for the HP
Toptools installation.
