Editor's Notes
How are delivering this value Enabling customers to unlock the full potential of their investment in an HP ProLiant and BladeSystem hardware is a key element of the HP Adaptive Infrastructure While customers who choose an “all up” solution from HP will benefit from hardware and software that is designed from the ground up to work together, we are committed to making sure our servers are the best-managed in the industry. That means also investing in joint development and go-to-market with industry leaders like Microsoft to ensure our customers receive the ProLiant and BladeSystem experience they’ve come to expect, regardless of their management platform. With this announcement, HP is taking a significant first step in delivering AI through any pane of glass by enabling HP Insight Control capabilities to be invoked directly from the Microsoft System Center consoles. A natural evolution in our support strategy for the System Center products, we believe Insight Control suite for System Center will help address many of the key pain points customers are experiencing today by reducing complexity and requirements on administrator time, delivering integrated management of virtual machines and the underlying host systems and optimizing utilization of resources, power and space.
Insight Control Environment is the suite of server management tools to make your HP ProLiant and BladeSystem environments simple, seamless and easy. HP Insight Control Environment management suite is the essential infrastructure management suite for every HP G6 server. Whether an HP BladeSystem or HP ProLiant server, always consider ICE and an essential part of your server. Don’t leave home without it. ICE provides an essential set of infrastructure management functionality that every G6 server can/should consider using. This functionality includes a complete set of lifecycle management tools including: RDP for rapid software image deployment, It too extends the power of Insight Control to BladeSystem, creating a single, consistent management environment for rapid deployment, health and performance monitoring, vulnerability and patch management, power management, lights-out remote control and also virtual machine management. The virtual machine management component bundled is one of the integrated differences of the HP Insight Control Environment management suite and the HP Insight Control Environment for BladeSystem management suite. Ideal targeting is the same as Insight Control Environment management suite other than using this suite specifically for BladeSystem servers.
The second offering to support our strategy of delivering Adaptive Infrastructure through any pane of glass, Insight Control suite for VMware vCenter is the result of close collaboration between HP and VMware. Because the value we each bring to the table is so complementary in nature, the partnership delivers the most seamless management experience for both physical and virtual datacenter elements. In addition to the industry leading ProLiant and BladeSystem platforms, HP Insight Software delivers deep insight and precise control of the unique HP management instrumentation that is built into all of our servers. Ongoing optimization of the HP systems managed by vCenter is delivered via tight integration with the vCenter console What VMware brings to the table is the industry’s most prominent virtualization platform, as well as comprehensive virtual infrastructure management in the vCenter products. What you get with Insight Control for System Center is the best of both worlds: VMware’s breadth of virtualization management capabilities combined with HP’s deep instrumentation, all surfaced through the System Center consoles Key features of Insight Control suite for VMware vCenter are: Integrated troubleshooting: Increases the efficiency of virtualization administrators by delivering the ability to troubleshoot both physical and virtual problems from the vCenter console. Power Management and reporting: Reduces IT costs by providing power usage data and potential savings reports Combined physical and virtual views: Reduces complexity by enabling the Virtualization administrator to view both virtual and physical IT assets and health status’ in the vCenter console
