3.1.6 Customizing the CPU clock speed that is reported

The CPU clock speed obtained as system information is reported from the client by referencing values defined in the CPU clock speed table that is provided by JP1/Software Distribution. The CPU clock speed table defines the value that is to be reported to the managing server when the measured CPU clock speed value is within a defined range of minimum and maximum clock speed values.

Example:

RANGE=0,5,0
:
RANGE=124,129,127
RANGE=130,136,133

In this example, the CPU clock speed table contains as one of its defined ranges 130 MHz as the minimum value and 136 MHz as the maximum value; in such a case, 133 MHz is defined as the value to be reported to the managing server. If the measurement obtained by the client is 130 MHz, then this is the range that is applicable, and the value that is reported to the managing server is 133 MHz.

To obtain CPU clock speed information outside the values defined in the CPU clock speed table, you must customize the CPU clock speed. To add values to the CPU clock speed table, you must create a new CPU clock speed table and then distribute it to the applicable clients. The CPU clock speed table is stored under the name CPUCLOCK.INI in the following directory; you must distribute a CPU clock speed table that you create to this directory:

The format of the CPU clock speed table and its distribution procedure are explained below.

Organization of this subsection
(1) Format of the CPU clock speed table
(2) Distributing the CPU clock speed table

(1) Format of the CPU clock speed table

To add values to the CPU clock speed table, specify them in the following format:

RANGE=xxx,yyy,zzz
xxx: Minimum value for the measured clock speed
yyy: Maximum value for the measured clock speed
zzz: Value to be reported to the managing server

Example
To report 300 MHz to the managing server when the measured value is between 290 and 310 MHz, specify as follows:
RANGE=290,310,300

Note
You must not delete the default values in the CPU clock speed table. If you delete them, the correct CPU clock speed may not be obtained.

(2) Distributing the CPU clock speed table

You use the remote installation facility to distribute a CPU clock speed table. When you package the file containing the CPU clock speed table, enter the following conditions in the Installation target directory field, which is located on the System Conditions page in the Software Distribution Packaging dialog box:

Drive
None

Directory
%NETMDMP%\MASTER\DB\CPUCLOCK.INI
