EXPRESSSCOPE Engine
EXPRESSSCOPE Engine makes remote server management safe and simple for NEC servers.
Real-Time Server Status
For straightforward insight on the server status, administrators off site have real-time access to all related visual elements available locally. On the remote management console, graphics of LED indicators light and blink the same as on the actual server, and the server’s virtual LCD monitor, normally viewed through the local console, provides easy-to-understand details of server conditions.
When the NEC server's management LAN port is connected to the network, server status is available through the Web browser and command line interface. This eases access to remote servers and the graphical interface of the Web browser helps reduce the complexity of monitoring sophisticated hardware conditions. In addition, because monitoring is mediated by EXPRESSSCOPE Engine, the server's baseboard management controller (BMC), information collection does not depend on the operating system. This makes NEC servers suitable for datacenter environments with a mix of operating systems.
Secure Access Management
While remote server management pursues efficiency and simplicity, security is equally vital. EXPRESSSCOPE Engine protects NEC servers through user authentication to limit access to the remote management network. Furthermore, login attempts to the network are logged to reduce the risk of security breach by outsiders. EXPRESSSCOPE Engine ensures a highly efficient and robust remote management environment.
Server Analysis
The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) system event logs collected by the EXPRESSSCOPE Engine are provided on the remote management console. The system event log screen displays diagnostic messages as well as the meaning of each log in reference with the fault dictionary.
Optimized Reporting
Administrators are alerted of abnormalities in a server through e-mail or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) reports. From a remote management console, reporting policies can be discretely defined for each monitored attribute to suit the criticality level of your system. Tailored report settings not only enable prompt remedial action in response to failures, but also help preemptively detect or prevent failures before they occur.
