#1:

If the management server does not receive the uninstallation notification from the agent, its device information will remain unchanged in the system regardless of the option you specify. In this case, take action such as manually deleting the device information. For devices for which Network Monitor is enabled, the device inventory is not deleted. After disabling Network Monitor, you need to delete the device inventory manually.

#2:

In the case of the Citrix XenApp and Microsoft RDS server, displaying start menus of agents is not supported, and therefore all the start menus must be hidden from view.

#3:

If 0 is specified, the JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 operation window displays the following information as the host name, computer name, and device name: a combination of the user name, phone number, and model name in the smart-device information obtained from JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Smart Device Manager, separated with colons (for example, BobBrown:09012345678:iPhone).

#4:

When changing the time from the default value, in order to avoid increasing the load on the management server due to overlapping processing, please set each setting value shifted by the same time from the default. For example, when shifting by 8 hours, set the process being executed at the default of 23:00 to 7:00 and the function executed at default 00:00 to 8:00.

The following is an example of a configuration file setting:

# 
# Configuration file 
#
# Time for collecting revision history
ChangeHistory_GetTime=00:00 

The settings in the configuration file are applied after the JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 service is restarted.
