Introduction to Power Manager
Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise Power Manager is an extension to Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise (OME) console and uses fine-
grained instrumentation to provide increased visibility over power consumption, anomalies, and utilization. Also, Power Manager alerts and
reports about power and thermal events with servers, chassis, and custom groups consisting of servers and chassis. This enables
increased control, faster response times, greater accuracy, and broader decision-making intelligence than would otherwise be possible.
When used with PowerEdge servers, or modular systems with an iDRAC Enterprise license, or supported chassis, and OpenManage
Enterprise Advanced license, Power Manager leverages information from OME console for platform-level power reporting. Power
Manager then communicates with Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) or Chassis Management Controller (CMC) on each
managed server to provide power-management data, and execution of control policy—making it easy for Administrators to identify areas
to gain efficiencies and cut wasteful costs.
