Principled Technologies Releases Two Studies Comparing Time and Effort for Server Management Tasks with Dell OpenManage Enterprise vs. a Manual Approach
In hands-on testing, PT found that using Dell OpenManage Enterprise for power monitoring, power capping, and firmware updates took less time and effort than doing the tasks manually.
Durham, NC, November 29, 2022 --(PR.com)-- Some of the routine tasks that administrators must handle include monitoring and capping power consumption and applying firmware updates across server clusters. Dell OpenManage Enterprise is a management tool that can automate some routine tasks. Using varying numbers of Dell PowerEdge servers, Principled Technologies (PT) tested two management approaches: a manual approach and automation using Dell OpenManage Enterprise (OME) or Dell OME Integration for VMware vCenter.
According to one report, “Not only was updating the server firmware easier with OpenManage Enterprise, the cluster-aware extension completed the task in the same amount of time and steps regardless of server count, whereas the manual approach required more time and steps with each additional server.”
The report about Power Manager states, “Completing... sustainability-based tasks with Power Manager 3.0 was faster and easier—for example, saving more than 11 minutes when collecting power usage data for an eight‑server cluster. Additionally, server power monitoring and capping with Power Manager 3.0 took the same amount of time and steps regardless of server count, whereas the manual approach increased the time and steps with each additional server.”
