Dispelling Remote Power
Management Myths
As companies expand their IT
operations into multiple locations within a city, across
the country or around the world, data center
administrators have come to rely on
remote power management
solutions to give them the control they need to securely
power cycle and power on/off hung servers or devices—at
any time and from any place.
The evolution of remote or “intelligent” power
management technology offers reliable, scalable,
cost-effective solutions. At the same time, a number of
myths have risen, causing undo concern about the affects
on network availability, the integration into existing
data center
management tools such as
Environmental
Monitoring or KVM over IP,
power limitations and ROI potential.
This Best Practice Brief dispels these myths, providing
key information on remote power management, including
examples of how intelligent power solutions are used to
manage and troubleshoot data center issues from a
single, centralized interface. It also addresses how
remote power/remote boot products not only meet the
needs of today’s data center, but how they are designed
to meet the technology demands of the future.
