To manage computers out of band in Configuration Manager 2007 SP1 and later, computers must be provisioned for AMT.

Identifying computers that are provisioned for AMT allows you to monitor the provisioning status for AMT and create a collection for computers that can be managed out of band.

For more information about provisioning computers for AMT, see How to Provision Computers for AMT.

Use the following procedures to identify computers that are provisioned for AMT by running a report, using the Configuration Manager console, and running a query. You must have a reporting point installed to run reports in Configuration Manager.
