Add-In: Manageability Add-in for Windows Home Server

Ylian Saint-Hilaire is a senior architect at Intel and is currently working on network manageability using the Intel Active Management Technology (AMT).

Ylian has released the open source add-in "Manageability Add-in for Windows Home Server", which can manage any computer as long as it runs the peer-to-peer mesh agent (a background service) from Ylian’s mesh project. Once up and running the add-in can do power state monitoring, remote computer monitoring and management along with access to a basic management console prompt. Additional benefits are added within the add-in if the computers on the network support Intel AMT, but this is not required for use.

Ylian has provided this quick tutorial video on the features in the Manageability Add-in for Windows Home Server.

More details on the add-in are available from here.
