How do the Remote Management tasks overlap or interact with common admin tasks I might want to perform in a Windows environment? e.g. when offboarding a user I may wish to reset the PC to its factory state, which would certainly delete any VNC or similar client I might have naively been using to initiate the process, so if performing that remotely I wouldn't be able to track it to completion. [I'm not asking this from experience!]
Also in a Windows domain, where the server tracks all of the domain PCs and users, can Intel vPro leverage that knowledge (or vice-versa)?
Intel Endpoint Management Assistant (Intel EMA) and vPro technologies (AMT) can help with that very scenario: how do I know that the PC has been reset? Intel EMA provides management of vPro endpoint devices both in-band (in the OS) and out-of-band. You could initiate the reset and then use out-of-band, hardware KVM functions to monitor the progress of the reset and even set the device up again.
We have some features coming that will enhance this process even more.
