11 Dell OpenManage systems management
Whether your IT environment consists of a few servers or a few thousand servers, Dell OpenManage
systems management solutions provide comprehensive management for evolving IT environments.
OpenManage is based on open standards and provides agent-based and agent-free server lifecycle
management functionality for Dell PowerEdge servers. OpenManage solutions help you automate
and streamline essential hardware management tasks.
The advanced management capabilities of Dell OpenManage also integrate with offerings from
other popular systems management solutions that you may already use, making Dell platforms easy
to manage and deploy in any IT environment. This ensures your IT services are available when your
business needs them. If you have already standardized on offerings from industry leaders, such as
BMC Software, Microsoft, Symantec™, VMware or other vendors, you can leverage OpenManage
integration and connections developed to use with your existing systems management framework
to efficiently manage Dell servers, storage, business-client PCs and network devices.
Start with a firm foundation for efficient hardware management using OpenManage tools, utilities
and management consoles. OpenManage systems management solutions consist of embedded
management features and software products that help you automate and simplify the entire server
lifecycle: deploy, update, monitor and maintain. OpenManage solutions are innovatively designed
for simplicity and ease of use to help you reduce complexity, save time, achieve efficiency, control
costs and empower productivity.
