Remote actions can be run through automated actions and on demand. You can run the automated actions by creating an event rule. If an action is run in an event rule, the request is sent to the server. The server then contacts the specified remote devices with the credentials for those devices. The server is connected to the remote devices and the command is run on the remote devices.
When you execute a remote action, the remote action is issued from your local installation of the Operations Console but is run on the computer where the BMC ProactiveNet Cell or the BMC ProactiveNet Operations Management Cell is installed.
Click Remote Actionsand then select a remote action.
Note
The number of remote actions that you can run for a BMC ProactiveNet Operations Management cell varies from that available for a BMC ProactiveNet cell.
Note
If you execute a remote action from an IPv6 enabled computer targeting an IPv4 enabled computer, the remote action may fail.
