ITA Remote Client Instrumentation Command Line Failures

Question

I have recently started using Openmange IT Assistant in our Enterprise. I am trying to set up a new Remote Client Instrumentation Command line with the following Arguments, to simply turn off the chassis intrusion activation on both clients and servers: system cim action=setcim ipaddress=$IP username=$USERNAME password=$PASSWORD authenticationlevel=packet classpropertyvalue=Dell_SMBIOSsettings::ChassisIntrusionStatus:5 The problem is that ALL tasks are reporting back with 'The task is not supported for the target device' Domain administrator credentials are being included in the wizard I have now tested on the following: Windows XP SP2 client (NO FIREWALL) with OMCI 7.5 InstalledWindows XP SP2 client (NO FIREWALL) with OMCI 7.5 Installed and OMCC Installed Poweredge Servers with Openmanage Server Assistant 5.2 Installed I am obviously missing something, can anyone offer advice please? Thanks in advance

For client systems you need to have the OMCC installed on the same system as IT Assistant and use the OMCC command line task feature of the IT Assistant. The client sytems that you want to have chassis intrusion turned off should have OMCI installed.

Thanks for your reply. The OMCC is already installed on the IT Assistant pc, this made the Remote Client Instumentation Command Line option available through IT Assistant. OMCI is installed on all of my test clients.   The error still occurs.

You said OMCI 7.5 is installed.  Do you know which build number?  Three were released and with one of them, there was an integration issue with ITA (that is A00 - build 630).
