Microsoft System Center Mobile Device Manager 2008 Resource Kit - Client Tools

Brief Description

System Center Mobile Device Manager (MDM) 2008 Client Tools provides tools to help administrators to troubleshoot connections and monitor device synchronization for Windows Mobile powered devices as part of an MDM system.

Overview

MDM Client Tools provides tools to help administrators to troubleshoot connections and monitor device synchronization for Windows Mobile powered devices as part of an MDM system. The following are tools included in this download:

MDM Connect Now Tool enables users of Windows Mobile 6.1 managed devices to download new software updates queued since the managed device last synchronized with the MDM system. The tool initiates a session between MDM Device Management Server and a managed device. Once the tool establishes a connection, new software updates are downloaded to the managed device.

MDM VPN Diagnostics Tool helps users diagnose VPN issues between the MDM and the devices it manages. The tool allows users to see the VPN configuration and status on the managed Windows Mobile device and to diagnose any VPN-related problems. The tool also allows the managed device user to collect device logs and send them to a diagnostics team for further analysis.

MDM Managed Device Status Viewer is a troubleshooting tool that enables managed device users to browse through values of Open Mobile Alliance Device Management (OMA DM) management objects, device synchronization information, and a list of all managed programs installed on the managed device.

To learn about additional MDM tools, see MDM Resource Kit Tools.
