Working With Normal Devices
In the Normal device state, the device has been successfully contacted by RME or the device has
contacted RME at least once (polling, successful job completion, Syslog receipt etc.). This indicates that
this is a real device in the network (at one point in time).
This state does not guarantee that you have had a successful Inventory and Configuration Collection.
You can schedule for a Inventory Collection using Resource Manager Essentials > Devices >
Inventory > Inventory Jobs (Create button) and Configuration Collection using Resource Manager
Essentials > Config Mgmt
> Archive Mgmt > Sync Archive.
You can perform all the RME application tasks using RME Normal device state.
