Installing the Dell Extension to the Active Directory Users and Computers Snap-In (Optional)

When you extend the schema in Active Directory, you must also extend the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in so that the administrator can manage Remote Console Switch devices, Users and User Groups, Remote Console Switch Associations, and SIP Privileges. The Dell Extension to the Active Directory User’s and Computers Snap-In is an option that can be installed when you install your systems management software using the Dell Systems Management Consoles CD. See the Dell OpenManage Software Quick Installation Guide for further instructions on installing systems management software.

NOTE: You must install the Administrator Pack on each system that is managing the Active Directory Remote Console Switch Objects. The installation is described in the following section, “Opening the Active Directory Users and Computers Snap- In.” If you do not install the Administrator Pack, then you cannot view the Dell SIP Object in the container.

NOTE: For more information about the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in, see your Microsoft documentation.

Opening the Active Directory Users and Computers Snap-In

To open the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in, perform the following steps:
