Data Center Control: Guidelines to Achieve Centralized
Management
The new data center requires systems that provide
more control, flexibility and scalability than ever
before. You need more than server management. You need
a system that reduces your Mean-Time-To-Repair (MTTR)
while leveraging the existing T resources you already
have.
If you need to manage data centers and branch offices
anytime from anywhere, there is an answer. A centralized
management approach with out-of-band capability can
increase data center control, allow you to do more with
less, and provide
remote
access from anywhere in the world.
Today's support-minded network administrators need
around the clock access to servers 365 days a year -
both at the rack and in remote locations. Fortunately,
with centralized management (including both in-band
and out-of-band connectivity), your data center has
never been so close.
Innovative serial console server and
KVM over
IP switching solutions allow you to leverage the
IP connectivity and security models in your network.
Centralized management software lets you control an
appliance that can be connected to servers, serial devices,
even power distribution units and environmental monitoring.
With centralized management, you can control multiple
servers and network devices no matter where they are
located. Virtual media is a more recent addition. It
increases administrator efficiency by allowing you to
conduct a large host of tasks remotely such as file
transfers.
Whether you need access at the rack, in the Network
Operating Center (NOC), or from your laptop at home,
there are solutions available that will provide unprecedented,
secure access and help you show a quick return on your
investment.
