The document discusses Eaton's Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) software. It provides automatic actions and alerts from UPS and sensor events. IPM integrates with virtualization platforms like VMware and allows graceful shutdown of physical and virtual servers if power is lost. It provides global power management, monitors Eaton and other UPS vendors, and is VMware-Ready certified. The latest version of IPM adds features like triggering actions at the VM level and integrating with vRealize Operation Manager. It also introduces a new licensing system with basic, silver, and gold editions.
