4. Supported Dell OpenManage Systems Management Consoles
Dell OpenManage systems management consoles provide the necessary tools for remote or one-
to-many group system management. These tools also consolidate the management applications
used on management workstations.
Dell OpenManage systems management consoles tools and applications include:
• Dell OpenManage Power Center
1.1
• Dell OpenManage Server Administrator
• Dell OpenManage IT Assistant
Dell OpenManage Power Center 1.1
Dell OpenManage Power Center provides aggregated power measurement and capping at a
rack, row, and room level enabling customers to increase their server density by capping power
at a rack level and mitigate risk from power and thermal events by invoking customer pre-
defined policies that let essential applications continue longer while cutting back on the power
used by lesser priority applications such as file and print servers. The Dell OpenManage Power
Center is an open, standards-based power management application that can read power usage
information from PowerEdge yx1x and yx2x servers, Power Distribution Units (PDUs),
Uninterruptable Power Supplies (UPS), and the M1000e blade server chassis. It controls power
consumption at the rack level, the row level, and the room level to improve power efficiency,
cut total power usage, and provides better intelligence for decision making.
