What is iEZman?
The IEI iEZman application provides out-of-band KVM function allowing full control of keyboard, mouse and viewing the video output on the remote system through the hardware-based Intel® Active Management Technology. The video output on the remote system is always viewable even when there is a BSoD (blue screen of death) or missing disk.

iEZman allows a remote user, sush as a support person, to remotely control and perform administrative tasks through a graphical user interface in Windows. All functions can be managed through this single interface after password verification. iEZman provides IT departments with remote client management, OOB (out-of-band) diagnostics and assets tracking regardless of system power or OS state to help reduce TCO and improve productivity.

iEZman Functions:
• Power Management - To power the remote system on, off or reset
• Schedule Power Management - To schedule the systems to wake from a sleep state or turn off at a particular time.
• Remote Access - To boot remote PCs from a local CD-ROM, floppy drive or ISO image, or boot into the BIOS.
• Group Management - To sort remote PCs into groups for easy monitoring and control.
• Patch Management - To apply patches to remote PCs.
• Alert and Events - To issue and alert when system problems occur.
• Alarm Clock - Sets an alarm to wake the system even under unconnected status
• KVM Remote Control (optional) - Allow a remote system to control the keyboard, video and mouse with a secure password *VNC license is required*

IEI One Key Recovery Solution
The unique IEI One Key Recovery solution includes exclusive technology to recover and backup the operating system with the simple press of a key. A recovery image CD with IEI official license sticker ships with every IEI single board computer, embedded system, and panel PC. It includes the system recovery software developed by IEI with Windows PE 2.0. The recovery image can be used to create a full system backup and restore from system failures. There is no need to buy additional backup and recovery tools.

All migration tasks can be performed remotely from a central management console reducing the costs associated with a physical visit. Neither specialized IT staff, nor consultants are required to implement the system imaging and data migration. Thus, IEI One Key Recovery simplifies the imaging and migration process and is time and cost saving. Please note that IEI One Key Recovery works on IEI products only. A warning message “You are an illegal user” appears when attempting to run it on a non-IEI product.

The iEZman and One Key Recovery solution bundled with IEI products using the Intel® processors family and chipsets and Intel® Active Management Technology is your smart choice for remote control management, system backup and recovery.
