NEC ESMPRO integrated server management software supports efficient server operation and management.
Since the launch of its Express5800 series servers, NEC has been proactively committed to bringing innovation to the market by featuring the latest hardware technologies.
Today's businesses are following a rising trend toward server consolidations, such as logical consolidation of multiple servers into a single server and physical consolidation of geographically distributed servers into a more secure and safeguarded data center environment. Performance improvements and space-saving designs are spurring this trend while ever increasing the call for system reliability.
Round-the-clock monitoring is thus the norm for today's server management. The new focus is how easily and effectively you can manage several servers.
NEC Express5800 series servers all come standard with NEC ESMPRO server management software, which consists of NEC ESMPRO Manager and NEC ESMPRO Agent. NEC ESMPRO Manager provides a status viewer for all servers over a network to allow for consolidated management on a remote management PC. NEC ESMPRO Agent collects a variety of hardware information from the managed server.
Through its web-based graphical interface, the status viewer delivers functionality similar to commonly used web-based applications, further reducing the workloads of server administrators.
Coupled with NEC's EXPRESSSCOPE Engine, an integrated baseboard management controller, NEC ESMPRO provides not only graphical monitoring interface but also remote control of the managed server.
If NEC ESMPRO Agent on the managed server detects a failure, it sends an alert immediately to NEC ESMPRO Manager on the management PC and helps identify a failed server and its location by changing the colors of icons on the PC screen. To minimize downtime, NEC ESMPRO interacts with EXPRESSSCOPE Engine to enable remote operation so that the administrator is not necessarily required to travel to the failed server for remedial tasks.
While version control of programs as BIOS is critical for ensuring stability of servers, the heavy workload - constantly obtaining updates, downloading modules, and applying the change to each individual server - can be daunting for server administrators.
NEC ExpressUpdate provides a solution to version control by consolidating management of update modules and its installation procedures for BIOS and firmware of multiple servers. It automatically collects the latest updates through the web and notifies the management PC. The administrator then can install the updates to the remotely-located servers by simple procedures - just a few clicks on the management PC. By reducing time and labor of your version control including the IT staff's visit to each site, NEC ExpressUpdate assists you to keep your servers updated with the latest modules.
