The 4836MDD from IBM
Remote Deployment Manager (RDM) facilitates remote deployment of both IBM and non-IBM systems. RDM allows for remote unattended installation of new and existing systems. RDM helps automate deployment tasks such as initial operating system installation, BIOS updates, and disposal of retired systems. All of these tasks can be done without visiting the remote system, reducing travel and labor costs. Seamless integration into IBM Director means only one console is required to both remotely manage and deploy supported systems. The IBM Remote Deployment Manager 4.40 product is available in English, but can run on non-English operating systems. It can deploy non-English operating systems. NLV support includes the following national language Windows operating systems: English; French; German; Spanish; Italian; Danish; Dutch; Norwegian; Swedish; Finnish; Brazilian Portuguese; Portuguese.
