Desktop Management Interface - DMI
A specification from the Desktop Management Task Force (DMTF) that
establishes a standard framework for managing networked computers. DMI
covers hardware and software, desktop
systems and servers, and defines a model for filtering events and
describing interfaces.
DMI provides a common path for technical support, IT managers, and
individual users to access information about all
aspects of a computer - including processor type, installation date,
attached printers and other peripherals, power sources,
and maintenance history. It provides a common format for describing
products to aid vendors, systems integrators, and
end users in enterprise desktop management.
