SupportAssist for Business PCs
I have created a deployment package from the TechDirect portal. I have installed the client on two PCs. After a few days neither of these PCs is showing in the Manage Assets tab in TechDirect. There are no errors when I log into TechDirect. If I open the client on either of the test PCs I get a notification that "Your IT administrator has not enabled the use of SupportAssist on your device". I can see some informational logs in the Windows Application log.

Hi guys,
There are some prerequisites that you need to fulfill to a properly function of SupportAssit.
Below i put them for you.
Besides, you have a command to run, that you need to run as administrator in the command prompt:
\Program Files 64\Dell\SupportAssistBusinessClient\bin\SupportAssistConnectivity.exe TestConnectivity
Pay special attention in one of the prerequisites that is port 5700,if this port is not open, then SupportAssist can´t communicate with Techdirect.
Once that communication was make, in the asset tab, tag you can see only the Service Tag, the rest of the details take almost 24 hs. to appears.
Regards
Alex
