Modifying The Intel® Core™ vPro™ processor add-on for System Center Configuration Manager 2012

Hi All,

From the following link you will find the instructions to get the add-on running on your SCCM 2012 server.

I thought I would put together a step-by-step process to make it a little easier.

Below the the instructions you can use to get this on your SCCM 2012 server.



1. Install the add-on. 

The following error kept occurring when I tried to install it on my SCCM 2012 server. I decided to install the add-on on my Windows 7 PC and just copy the contents from my Windows 7 PC to my SCCM 2012 Server. 



From your Windows 7 PC copy the contents from C:\Program Files\Intel Corporation\Intel Core vPro processor add-on for System Center Configuration Manager 2007 to the same location on the SCCM 2012 server. 

2. Create the Right Click Action

Create the following folders if they don't already exists. I already had them because I am using the right click tools for SCCM 2012

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\XmlStorage\Extensions\Actions\3fd01cd1-9e01-461e-92cd-94866b8d1f39

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\XmlStorage\Extensions\Actions\ed9dee86-eadd-4ac8-82a1-7234a4646e62

3. Create a new file called IntelvProExt.xml in each folder and paste the following code in it.

ActionDescription Class="Group" DisplayName="Intel vPro" MnemonicDisplayName="Mnemonic" Description="Contains commands for Intel vPro hardware" SqmDataPoint="53">
<ShowOn>
    <string>ContextMenu</string>
</ShowOn>
  <ActionGroups>
    <ActionDescription Class="Executable" DisplayName="Start KVM" MnemonicDisplayName="Start KVM" Description="Starts a KVM session with Intel hardware">
       <ShowOn>
         <string>ContextMenu</string>
      </ShowOn>
      <Executable>
        <FilePath>C:\Program Files\Intel Corporation\Intel Core vPro processor add-on for System Center Configuration Manager 2007\kvmview.exe</FilePath>
        <Parameters>-host ##SUB:Name## -dns</Parameters> 
      </Executable>
      <ActionStateAssembly>
        <Assembly>.\AdminUI.CollectionMenuActions.dll</Assembly>
        <Type>Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.AdminConsole.CollectionMenuActions.LaunchUtilities</Type>
        <Method>IsAMTPowerControlAndOOBConsoleEnabled</Method>
      </ActionStateAssembly>
    </ActionDescription>

    <ActionDescription Class="Executable" DisplayName="Set Alarm Clock" MnemonicDisplayName="Set Alarm Clock" Description="Schedules a time for Intel hardware to power on">
      <ShowOn>
         <string>ContextMenu</string>
      </ShowOn>
      <ActionStateAssembly>
        <Assembly>.\AdminUI.CollectionMenuActions.dll</Assembly>
        <Type>Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.AdminConsole.CollectionMenuActions.LaunchUtilities</Type>
        <Method>IsAMTPowerControlAndOOBConsoleEnabled</Method>
      </ActionStateAssembly>
      <Executable>
        <FilePath>C:\Program Files\Intel Corporation\Intel Core vPro processor add-on for System Center Configuration Manager 2007\AlarmExt.exe</FilePath>
        <Parameters>-host ##SUB:Name## -tls -dns</Parameters> 
      </Executable>
    </ActionDescription>

  </ActionGroups>
</ActionDescription>
