How to manage NOT off the shelf applications

How do I manage applications that are large and not "off the shelf"
For example I want to be able to look at my ERP and CRM systems and see which servers it is installed on, who supports it, when the contract is due etc. I will have a Development, QA and Production environment for each system.  Can this be accomplished
with system center?  Or is there a plug in that will provide this level of functionality.  In the past I have seen products that allow a parent to be set up that encapsulates all of the files for such an application.
Thanks,
Martin

If you want to report something, you first need to get that information somehow stored on to those servers so that ConfigMgr can read it. ConfigMgr isn't out of the box solution for everything, it always needs some configuration to get the desired results.
If those applications you mentioned populate some information into the windows registry or WMI, it can be collected with ConfigMgr. If not, you have to create a custom method to do so (script).
Here's a tool that can convert registry keys into WMI and after that the information can be collected with ConfigMgr:

Here's an example of populating WMI with custom information and collect it with ConfigMgr:

  • How can I turn off the "this application's signature HAS been verified do you want to run it?" message?

    I'm running Firefox 22.0 on the Mac, OS X 10.6, Java 6 SE fully updated on the Mac. I have corporate web sites I must use throughout the day that have Java applets associated with them, one of them being the Ephox web text editor. EVERY TIME I open a page that has the editor being invoked on it, I get FOUR messages that say "This application's signature has been verified. Do you want to run this application?" Two of them will have the name of the editor. Two of them will have blanks. ALL of them show "ALWAYS TRUST content from this publisher" as checked. RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN.
    Although I have a number of addins installed, I have had to disable them to get these apps to load without crashing.
    NOTE that this does not happen in Firefox 22 on Windows 7; nor did it with the same apps (no upgrades at the corp. website) on Firefox 18 or 19 on the Mac.
    Help???

    We are sorry this is more like a Java issue than a Firefox one.
    However, I found this that may be helpful to solve your problem, check it out: [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1472494/suppressing-applications-digital-certificate-has-been-verified-do-you-want-to-ru http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1472494/suppressing-applications-digital-certificate-has-been-verified-do-you-want-to-ru]

  • How can I turn off the WLS 6.1 security in order to develop my own application-based security module?

    Dear Colleagues,
    I am currently developing a J2EE application using WLS 6.1.
    My team and I have to implement a security requirement to suit our company's needs.
    The security requirements are that, users' password need to be aged (30 days maximum) and we need to provided a GUI front-end (JSP) to allow users to change their password when these expire after 30 days.
    Our internal contacts in the company, have already taken the lead to find out about whether we will be able to use the WLS 6.1 platform to do this and the answer we got back, was.
    Now we need to develop our own security module.
    I have 2 questions:
    1. How can we turn off the WLS security in order develop our own application-based security module?
    2. How can we develop a security module that allows us to age users' password and provide them with facilities to change their passwords when these expire?
    At the moment, we are using the default BEA WebLogic login.jsp page and there some configuration in the web.xml for this. I will be grateful if you could advise me on how to turn this default security off so that we can write our own security module.

    hi,
    1.You can write your own realm in 61 which can plugged for your security
    calls.
    2. once you write your ownrealm.. you can access it through weblogic
    api/ur api..
    thanks

  • HT5527 I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    If you migrated your MobileMe account before 1 August you should have signed into System Preferences>iCloud with it, and you would be able to see your calendars, bookmarks and emails on the iCloud website. Is this the case? Did you sign into iCloud with your @me.com address?
    If you did not migrate your MobileMe account you can no longer do so.
    If you did migrate, did you do so from a full MobileMe account or from a Family Pack sub-account? the latter did not get the complimentary storage (because their iDisks were only 5GB anyway).
    If you had a full MobileMe account, check on your Mac - System Preferences>iCloud - and see whether that shows the upgrade. If it doesn't, you probably need to contact Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support (MobileMe Support is no longer available) and you may be asked to pay a fee: in this case you should ask them to deal with it without cost (and hope they agree).
    Note that you haven't paid anything for your MobileMe storage since your first renewal date after 6 June 2011, and iCloud costs nothing unless you specifically choose to upgrade the storage. Note also the iCloud storage is not general file storage in the manner of the iDisk but is restricted to iOS device Backup, Mail, Photo Journal and Documents.

  • I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

    I accidently clicked for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen without access to view options?

    Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

  • How do I shut off the plug in. I using mac OS10.4.11 and I keep getting a bar to update my plugin. The plugin will not work with os10.4.11. Everytime I go to a

    every time I go to a new site a bar is lowered and ask to update my plugin. I am using mac 10.4.11 G4 The new plugin will not work. How do I shut off the plugin update so I don't get this anoying bar ever time I go to a new web page. If there is no way to shut it off, I'll trash Firefox and go back to Safari. This just started and I'm tired of it.

    to turn off the messages about outdated plugins, enter "about:config" into the address bar of the browser, confirm the info dialog, then search for the preference named "plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin" & double-click it in order to toggle it to "true".
    please also note that firefox 3.6.28 was the last build that ran on a powerpc, however if you want to use an up-to-date browser based on firefox you can switch to "tenfourfox" - the downside is it doesn't support plugins at all
    [[Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.4 or PowerPC processors]]

  • How do i turn off the auto lock feature?  In my options it does not have "never" on it.  It is only timed amounts.

    How do I turn off the auto lock feature.  I have only timed options.  There is not the "never" option available.

    I've got options for 2, 5, 10, 15 minutes and Never. Have you got an Exchange email account on your iPad ? 'Never' can be removed so as to protect a company's potentially sensitive email - they may not want the iPad being left/stolen with the emails on it accessible. If you remove the account the Never option will probably reappear

    Thank you Chris.  Yes  I did know that but it was not clear how to turn it off.  All the forums visited said it was under general.  I have since found a site called iAnswerGuy which describes how to turn it off step by step. Thank you very much for coming back to me so quickly.  Susie

  • HT1430 How do I turn off the data when I am not in a WiFi location? I noticed that I am using data when the phone is "on" and I am not in a WiFi situation, but not on the internet. So, how do I turn off the data?

    How can I turn off the LTE data when I am someplace where there is not WiFi and I do not want my LTE running up a bill? I have tracked my usage and realize that the LTE is being used even when I am not using it, just because the phone is turned on.

    Merely being on should not use any data.  You must have something running - something using push notifications, or push email, prhaps?
    So, you can either track down what is using the data and change it, or you could go in and disaple cellular data in your settings.
    One other thing to check is
    Settings -> General -> About -> Diagnostic and Usage data -> set it to "Don't Send"
    Settings -> Restrictions -> Location Services -> System Services -> turn all these "OFF" (this will not affect how you use your phone at all, but will stop any outgoing location information being sent periodically back to Apple).

  • How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens everytime I turn on my computers.  Do NOT subscribe to CC. HELP.

    How do I turn off the automated Adobe Cloud ID window that opens every time I turn on my computers.  I want this annoying window to stop appearing.  I do not and will not subscribe to "Adobe Cloud" but the program (all 197 MB) somehow found it's way onto both my computers.  Nefarious at the least.
    I'm afraid to uninstall the "adobe cloud" programs from my computers because I fear that they are linked to my stand alone version of cs6 and my somehow corrupt the operation of my cs6. 
    HELP.  PLEASE.

    Have you installed any trial of Adobe CC because in all probability the auto prompt to purchase CC appears when the trial run ends.?
    The stand alone version of CS6 is not going to be affected if you uninstall the trial CC.

  • HT5463 How do I turn off the silence ?   ( I do not want either always nor only while iPhone is locked).

    How do you not silence the phone when it is locked.   I settings/do not disturb, the only choices for silence: "always" or "only while iphone is locked".    How do you keep the silent feature off when the phone is locked.   I can not hear the ring....

    My phone will vibrate when it is in locked mode but will not ring.  Why
    did the engineers refuse to allow it to ring?
    They didn't refuse to allow it to ring. It works fine.
    Why do I have to waste battery and keep it from locking.
    You don't.
    I have had plenty of cheap phones which will ring on incoming calls but a "smart iphone" will not. 
    iPhone rings fine on incoming calls.
    My wife has a brand new 5s and she has to keep her's on all the time too.
    Of course you have to keep the phone on.
    There is no phone that will ring when it is powered off.

    You're welcome.
    Notes can be synced direct with the Mail app notes feature with OS X, and with the new seperate Notes app available with the new Mountain Lion (10.8) OS X version released yesterday.
