th
Generation servers—All the servers used for the feature test were 14G servers.
• Fully loaded appliance—The database was loaded with data by using events, tasks, and jobs such as
configuration inventory and firmware update. After that, tests were performed for the specific features.
• Power Manager Plugin was installed on OpenManage Enterprise 3.2.
• 3,000 Devices were added to the plugin working set and metric collection task was initiated.
2.3 General recommendations for testing scalability and performance of
OpenManage Enterprise 3.2
Based on the analysis of various tests performed, it is recommended to have the following minimal
configurations for optimal performance:
• Minimum hardware configuration shown in section 2.1 must be used. Enhanced hardware
specifications—such as increasing the processor core or RAM—will result in a better performance than
described in this technical white paper.
• A DNS must be configured so that OpenManage Enterprise 3.2 is able to resolve the hostname of all the
managed devices.
