Device Management
Most RME tasks are performed against a set of devices. Device Management is the starting point for all
RME applications.
For RME to work with devices, you must first add devices to Common Services Device and Credential
Repository. RME provides a facility to either select devices from Device and Credential Repository and
add the selected devices into RME or automatically add devices to RME by enabling the Automatically
Manage Devices from Credential Repository setting in the Device Management Setting window.
When devices are added to RME, Inventory (and other applications within RME) proceed to contact the
device and collect necessary information to be stored in the database.
