Configuring Dell Commad Intel VPro Out Of Band with SCCM 1706
Hi,
I have SCCM 1706 running and manage about 20 Dell 7040 Micro desktops.
I would really like to set up OOB Management using AMT so that I can configure software updates to be installed over night i.e. SCCM can turn on the desktop at say 2am and install any software and updates etc.
I have installed the newly released Dell Command | Integration Suite for System Centre v5.0 which now includes the Dell Command | Intel vPro Out of Band.
I have SCCM 1706 installed on a Windows Server 2012 R2 Virtual Machine (Hypervisor is Server 2012 R2)
Every time I open the Intel vPro Out Of Band App on the SCCM 1706 server the Settings are lost - I do not know if this is correct?
Intel vPro Out Of Band Settings Questions:
(1) Should the settings be remembered?
(2) Should (or can) the "Operating System User Account" be the Domain Admin Account
(3) Should (or can) the "AMT Administrative User Account" be the Domain Admin Account
(4) On the "Intel vPro Out Of Band Settings Indications Tab" what IP address should be in the "Listener IP Address"
USB Provisioning
(1) The Password Section is the AMT Password? Default password for non-configured Dell AMT systems is just "admin"?
(2) Provisioning
(2i) User Consent: Shall I leave "Enable remote configuration of user consent policy" checked?
(2ii) Out of band provisioning: "Enable (will start "hello" packets immediately") - I assume I should check this
(2ii) Consumable records: I have no idea what this is
(2iv) Certificate file - I will uploaded my Domain Certificate Authority Certificate (DER)?
(2v) Hash Algorithm: Should i select the same as my  Domain Certificate Authority Certificate? (SHA256)
(2vi) Friendly Name: No Idea what this is? is it the domain name of my SCCM Server? Servername.DomainName.Loca
How does Dell Command | Intel vPro Out Of Band Integrate with SCCM 1706? I cannot see any new menus or options in SCCM 1706?
How can I see when clients are correctly provisioned?
I have not been able to find any documentation for this
help is very much appreciated?
many thanks
jack

this is the official response from DELL PRO SUPPORT:
"I have checked with a few departments and there is no specific team to support the software. The documentation including the manuals is the support we currently offer for Dell Command. If there is anything further I can help you with please let me know."

Bummer. We work with vPro via Intel's native tools so, unfortunately, I'm not able to help any further. :(
ASKER
do you work with Intel's vPro integration into SCCM?
I do not need to use Dell's software
I do not need to use Dell's software
We use Intel's native tools. SCCM has never been a part of our processes.
