HP Insight Management 7.0 Getting Started Guide (7.0 and 7.1)

HP Storage Provisioning Manager
The HP Storage Provisioning Manager (SPM) is a software tool that provides a service-centric
management interface to storage, allowing storage requests to be fulfilled with storage services
from a storage catalog. It securely automates storage management tasks alongside the Matrix OE
visualization software. After storage policies and storage resources are input to the storage catalog
using the SPM user interface, the HP Matrix OE logical server management can request and have
storage set up to meet server needs.
HP Global Workload Manager (gWLM)
HP Global Workload Manager (gWLM) for HP Integrity servers is an easy-to-use, multi-system
workload management tool to automatically move resources based on business priorities.
HP Capacity Advisor Consolidation software
HP Capacity Advisor Consolidation software addresses the need to understand resource utilization
on servers that are targeted for consolidation onto other systems. Such servers often will not be
running Matrix Operating Environment. Yet, being able to use the HP Capacity Advisor planning
facilities can greatly reduce the amount of time needed to plan a consolidation effort.
The Capacity Advisor Consolidation software provides you with a limited license to obtain data
for use in Capacity Advisor scenarios. For six months from the time the license is locked into its
assignment to a server, you can collect data to use in your consolidation planning scenarios within
Capacity Advisor.
