Reports - Disk Space
Yes, all disk drives would be nice. But for the time being, you can tap on each computer and then Disk Drives to see. A lot quicker than a log in to each server.

Automatic server restarts
I have been using scheduled tasks for a long while now with PCM and not noticed it not to work. If you are sure it does not work, perhaps turning on the diagnostic logs and testing and then sending results to PCM support to look into.

After restart, pcmonitor service not starting
I agree - I have only seen it happen after Windows updates, but not on every server. Also, typically I have only noticed it on servers. I have yet to update this month yet.

After restart, pcmonitor service not starting
May or may not help, but I have seen this typically after a Windows update and re-start! Given that tomorrow (as well as Apple Dev announcements etc), is Microsoft Tuesday, I shall observe tomorrow and check event log and PC Monitor log and let you know

Active Directory Notifications
Also check Event Security Log to see if there are attempts from outside the network trying to login. I see this all too often

Remote Configure of Agents?
With the help of Paul Csiki (another forum member), I did write a plugin that currently allows you to change the settings below. Of course these can be done via Dassboard and PC Monitor Manager Computer Name Group Name Enable/Disable Debig Log Disable Auto Update Enable/Disable File Delete Enable/Disable Hardware List Enable/Disable Perf Counter History Enable/Disable File Browsing Enable/Disable User Support Enable/Disable WOL Over Internet WOL Port Low Memory Percentage Enable/Disable Maintenance Mode Unit of Measure Server Address Events Per Page

Create plugin in Visual Studio (vb)
In answer to the first question, the original plugin was for a different version and plugin was updated by Paul Csiki. Please download again. Alternatively, you could download my version (digbyp). We have also discovered (and have the fix already) whereby if one of the fields is 'blank' the plugin will not show to use. I only discovered this when i was adding more to my verson and Paul Csiki provided the resolution regards Paul Digby

Computer Serial Number
Alternatively, you could make use of a plugin named Power of the Shell http://forum.pulseway.com/topic/274-poweroftheshell-plugin-14/ I have copied below a script that will display the Make, Model, Serial, Chasis Type, Computer Name, Owner and Domain. Follow the instructions in the link provided. If stuck, Johnni or I can assist further. # Start of Script $info = get-wmiobject -query "Select * from win32_computersystem" $info2 = get-wmiobject -query "Select * from win32_bios" $z = $info2.SerialNumber $system = Get-WMIObject -class Win32_systemenclosure $type = $system.chassistypes $a = Switch ($Type) { "1" {"Chassis : $Type - Other"} "2" {"Chassis : $type - Virtual Machine"} "3" {"Chassis : $type - Desktop"} "4" {"Chassis : $type - Low Profile Desktop"} "5" {"Chassis : $type - Pizza Box"} "6" {"Chassis : $type - Mini Tower"} "7" {"Chassis : $type - Tower"} "8" {"Chassis : $type - Portable"} "9" {"Chassis : $type - Laptop"} "10" {"Chassis : $type - Notebook"} "11" {"Chassis : $type - Handheld"} "12" {"Chassis : $type - Docking Station"} "13" {"Chassis : $type - All-in-One"} "14" {"Chassis : $type - Sub-Notebook"} "15" {"Chassis : $type - Space Saving"} "16" {"Chassis : $type - Lunch Box"} "17" {"Chassis : $type - Main System Chassis"} "18" {"Chassis : $type - Expansion Chassis"} "19" {"Chassis : $type - Sub-Chassis"} "20" {"Chassis : $type - Bus Expansion Chassis"} "21" {"Chassis : $type - Peripheral Chassis"} "22" {"Chassis : $type - Storage Chassis"} "23" {"Chassis : $type - Rack Mount Chassis"} "24" {"Chassis : $type - Sealed-Case PC"} Default {"Chassis : $type - Unknown"} } "Make : " + $info.Manufacturer "Model : " + $info.Model "Serial : " + $z "" + $a "Name : " + $info.Name "Owner : " + $info.PrimaryOwnerName "Domain : " + $info.Domain # End of script
