ASM

Acer Server Management is a server management tool. It is specially
designed to help spot errors or potential trouble spots in the network
servers through a single management station. ASM can send a query to
a remote server over the network to request information such as
system hardware and software configuration, system resource usage,
and system performance.

The complete ASM package consists of two major components — the
ASM Agent and the ASM Console. The ASM Agent are the servers to
be managed on the network. The ASM Console is a Windows-based
monitoring station that communicates with the ASM Agents and can
be installed on any agent’s workstation on the network.

System requirements

ASM requires TCP/IP connectivity between the ASM Agent and the
