MDI Server instructions
The MDI server is host for the Managed Device Interface (MDI) services, through
which the system gets its visibility of the assets on the various machines in the system.
The MDI server is an optional component. It runs on the regular Dell-based platform.
On systems without a MDI server, such as the K2 BaseCamp Express, the MDI
services can run on the MediaFrame server (or other Aurora Browse machine).
