Scalability and performance test results of OpenManage Enterprise 3.0 (tested on an MX7000 chassis)
23 Benchmark the Performance, Reliability, and Scalability of Dell EMC OpenManage Enterprise 3.0 in your data
center environment
Test setup and results of the Configuration Inventory and
Deployment feature in OpenManage Enterprise 3.0 (tested on a
single MX7000 chassis)
Test configuration:
o Dell EMC MX7000 chassis
o 2 Dell EMC MX840C sleds with four network cards and one FC card
o 4 MX5108n IOMs
Identity migration was performed from one Dell EMC PowerEdge MX840c server to another similar Dell
EMC PowerEdge MX840c server. The identities selected for deployment include virtual MAC address,
virtual iSCSI MAC address, virtual FIP MAC address, virtual WWPN, virtual WWNN for FC and FCoE,
and iQN. Few other attributes from BIOS, iDRAC, Lifecycle Controller, NIC, and FC were also deployed
and verified for migration. Sample XML, other than the NIC attributes.

5.3.1 Test results of the Configuration Inventory and Deployment feature in
OpenManage Enterprise 3.0 (tested on a single MX7000 chassis)
The time taken to perform identity and VLAN deployment took 11 mins. This time is based on the identity
attributes that were selected for deployment along with the three attributes per FQDD.
The time taken to perform deployment increases slightly when more number of attributes are selected for
performing a configuration operation.
The time taken to perform migration is almost double the time taken to perform deployment.
