 Status
Summary
BladeDome Cluster Monitor is easy to set
up and manage. Red, yellow and green lights
indicate the health of your servers. This
management tool lets you drill down into
your hardware subsystems to check the status
of each server.
Failure
Notifications
Send a customized e-mail that alerts specified
individuals when operating conditions exceed
predefined thresholds.
Remote
Management capability
Provides in-band-and out-of-band remote
management capabilities. If a node falters
or stops functioning, the system administrator
is able to locally or remotely power up
another node for load balancing.
Platform
Monitoring
Thermal sensors continuously monitor system
temperatures, fan-fail, over-temperature
and voltage. The Power Status shows which
servers are on and off. The Power Delay
allows users to configure the sequence that
power is turned on or off for each server
in a cluster. This helps avoid power in-rush
at start-up and allows users to predetermine
which server will be turned on first.
Configuration
and Server Admin
Remote Server Admin tools let you configure
and monitor all key services of the HyperBlade
Server — locally or remotely. If you
prefer using a terminal window, Server Admin
provides extensive command line tools to
configure, monitor and manage your systems
remotely. Shell scripts can easily be built
for customer management needs. If network
services are down, BladeDome Admin tool
is equipped with a serial port that lets
administrators access the system through
a serial console session.
Optional
Provisioning Manager
- New
Using Appro’s optional Provisioning
Manager, you can rapidly, reliably, and
remotely deploy operating systems, applications,
patches, and more across all servers simultaneously
– saving hours of administrative time
and reducing human error. Appro’s powerful
provisioning management capabilities allow
you to implement, configure, or repurpose
large numbers of servers, quickly, easily,
and with consistent results.
