Hi Marek,

The Remote Manage app, on the Custom Actions tab, only accepts four parameters, one of which is the IP address of the client to execute the action against. This is documented in the PDF that comes in the download of the app itself, however I've added them here also for your reference:

%RM:IPAddress% - used to retrieve the *first* IP address for the client (as displayed under Device Information on the Actions & Tools tab)
%RM:NetbiosName% - used to retrieve the computer name of the client
%RM:ResourceID% - used to retrieve client information from the site
%RM:SMSProvider% - used to call the SMS Provider computer to retrieve site information

Hopefully that will help you out.
