system
HP ProDesk 600 G3 SFF
ram: 4gb
OS: Windows 10 Pro ver. 1709
build 16299.125
AMT release 11.6.12.1201
Two issues
1) unable to use manual or usb key configuration to set admin mode
2) unable to set expiration action on host machine when using agent presence
background
Have used SCS software to configure for client control mode.
Used AMT SDK HLAPI software samples to remotely create agent, display agent info, detect
when agent is running, stopped, expired. Used local samples 1 and 2 to start and stop/expire.
Additionally tested power changes: power on, power off successfully.
When trying to call SetExpirationActionOnAgentPresenceWatchDog function, fails at
SetExpirationAction (message simply says failed to set expiration action).
Does this require admin configuration as opposed to client control?
Would like to have Admin Control Mode, so have been attempting to set configuration using
usb key, albeit unsuccessfully. Setting up of the usb works using the SCS software, but
nothing happens when booting, (no prompt for whether to provision) no configuration
happens when booting with the usb plugged in.
When booting and pressing CTRL-P, no entry to MEBX menu. There is a ME setup in the BIOS
menu, but no options for changing the AMT configuration.

Def-Logix_Developer,
- with 7th Gen Intel Core vPro intel introduced requirement for OEM BIOS to include USB provisioning setting and its factory default value shall be set to Disabled.
- If your PC is already configured (any mode) USB provision attempts will be rejected -with MEBx message about "...Configuration flow error, system is already provisioned".
- from MEBx - via Unconfigure Network Access > Full Unprovision MEBx menu option. See http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03975296 http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03975296 HP MEBX/AMT user guide.
- via Intel Configurator -ACU utility (from Intel SCS Configurator folder) running it as local administrator with following command ACUConfig.exe Unconfigure /Full or ACUWizard GUI executed as local administrator.
- reset Intel AMT to full factory defaults via PC board jumper or BIOS setting, or by pressing power button for specified time - it is OEM dependent!
- from MEBx - via Unconfigure Network Access > Full Unprovision MEBx menu option. See http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03975296 http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03975296 HP MEBX/AMT user guide.
- There is also ACUConfig.exe MoveToACM /AdminPassword command that allows to "upgrade" Intel AMT from Client to Admin Control mode but it requires more complex environment (Intel SCS RCS server, AMT Provisioning certificate, DHCP server and Intel AMT enabled LAN interface in your vPro systems).
