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 XRE-2 platform. On systems
without a MDI server, the MDI services can run on the MediaFrame server or other
Aurora Browse machine.
