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.
