Power Conformance

The Power Conformance section shows the conformance of machines to the power policy selected using the Conformance with drop-down list. Machine counts are based on the machine ID/group ID filter and whether or not the KDPM client is installed on a machine.

Five gauges display the number of conforming, non-conforming, and non-supported machines:

  • Turn off Monitor - Machines matching the selected power policy monitor settings.
  • Turn off Hard Disk - Machines matching the selected power policy hard drive settings.
  • System Standby - Machines matching the selected power policy system standby settings.
  • System Hibernate - Machines matching the selected power policy system hibernate settings.
  • Power Conformance - This fifth top gauge represents a rollup of the four subordinate gauges. This is the total number of machines that conform to all four power settings.

These gauges are updated when:

  • The KDPM client is installed on a machine using Install/Remove. You can compare the power settings of machines at the time of the install to any of the power policies already defined to determine which machines do not conform to the selected power policy.
  • A power policy is applied to a machine.
  • The latest audit is performed on a machine, typically on a daily basis.

Assigned Power Policy

Select the Assigned Power Policy item from the Conformance with drop-down list to determine which machines that conform/do not conform/do not support their assigned power policy. This can help you determine which machines are non-conforming, regardless of the power policy applied to the machine.

<N> machines do not conform <power setting>

Click the link beneath any of the five gauges to see a list of non-conforming machine IDs.

<N> machines unassigned or unmonitored

Click the link beneath this top gauge to see a list of unassigned or unmonitored machine IDs.

<N> machines do not support <power setting>

Click the link beneath any of the four lower gauges to see a list of machine IDs that do not support this specialized power setting.

Note: Certain machines may not support one or more power policy settings. Typical examples include virtual machines and terminal servers. Power policies settings, if applied to these machines, are skipped.

Policy Deployment at a Glance

Displays three pie charts, one for each type of policy: Power, Mapped Drives, and Printers. Each pie chart shows the percentage of policy deployments that succeeded, succeeded with errors, failed and remain unscheduled. Click any slice of the pie chart or any label of the pie chart to display a list of individual machines belonging to that slice.

In Process Settings Backups

Displays when the backup started and the settings filter being used.

Settings Backups at a Glance

Displays a pie chart showing scheduled, succeeded, failed and canceled backups. Click any slice of the pie chart or any label of the pie chart to display a list of individual machines belonging to that slice.

Settings Backup Status by Machine

Displays the status of backups scheduled, succeeded, failed or canceled for each machine.
