Microsoft will no longer support its Java Virtual Machine after January 1, 2004. Microsoft now supports the Microsoft .Net framework, and as a result, the IT Assistant user interface was converted to the .Net application. If the communication between the user interface and the connection service is broken, the data content frame needs to be reinitialized.

To operate the IT Assistant Web-based user interface, you need a computer that runs a supported operating system. The computer must be configured with a mouse, and the monitor should have a minimum resolution of 800 x 600. Apply the latest service pack for the Microsoft Windows or Windows NT operating system that you are using on the computer from which you are running the interface. Apply the latest service pack for the version of Microsoft Internet Explorer you are using. See similar questions...

Web-based UIs present a number of development and ongoing cost issues. The development effort for Web interfaces can be very expensive, and require as many as four different skill sets (for example, HTML, VBScript, ASP and C++). And, the resulting application isn't always particularly compelling ? contorted Web pages that are not especially intuitive to use, are not interactive in real-time and cannot replicate the functionality of a fat client interface written with a GUI toolkit.

Applications built using JFC are not locked in to a specific look and feel. Using JFC, developers can create apps that either have a native platform look and feel or use the Java look and feel -- or they can create their own custom look and feel. The power lies in the hands of developers -- they can develop their products using the look and feel that is most appropriate for their users. See similar questions...

No, many of the day-to-day operational command line functions are available on the HMC, accessible from a remote system by using the rexec command or the OpenSSH command. A number of the more complex HMC functions can only be accessed through the Web-Based System Manager interface because they would be very complicated to use in command line form.

NOTE: Dell recommends that you install the IT Assistant Services on a server with Windows 2000 to manage CIM-instrumented systems. The connection time is slow if the IT Assistant Services are installed on a system with Microsoft Windows NT 4.0. This causes the user interface to time out. You can correct this by increasing the time out value for the user interface. See similar questions...

Name resolution may fail if it is not properly configured on your system using Domain Name System (DNS) or Windows Internetworking Name Server (WINS). You can specify System x by IP address, or check your network name resolution configuration. Another reason may be that the port number used for communication with the IT Assistant Connection Service was changed. See similar questions...
