Management Pack.

• HP ProLiant Essentials Server Migration Pack The Server Migration Pack extends the functionality

of the Virtual Machine Management Pack to provide integrated physical-to-virtual (P2V),

virtual-to-virtual (V2V), and virtual-to-physical (V2P) migrations. The Server Migration Pack enables

you to simplify the server consolidation process, thereby freeing you to focus on other priorities.

The Server Migration Pack now offers a new Server Migration Pack license type that allows

unlimited migrations for one year after the first migration is initiated. To purchase additional

licenses, see http://www.hp.com/go/vmmanage.

• HP BladeSystem Integrated Manager in HP Systems Insight Manager HP SIM delivers a blade

environment designed to consolidate access to blade deployment, configuration, and monitoring tools.

Picture views are available of racks and enclosures. HP BladeSystem Integrated Manager is automatically

installed with HP SIM. No license key is required. To access HP BladeSystem Integrated Manager,

select Tools→Integrated Consoles→HP BladeSystem. See http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/

servers/Integrity-bl/p-class/60p/index.html for more information.

• HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid Deployment Pack - Windows Edition The HP ProLiant Essentials Rapid

Deployment Pack (RDP) is a multiserver deployment tool that enables IT administrators to easily deploy

large volumes of servers in an unattended, automated fashion. The RDP is installed separately from HP

SIM and requires a license for each server being managed. You must register your RDP product

registration number to purchase licenses or obtain a 10-node 30-day license prior to installing RDP (a

10-node 7-day evaluation license is built into the software). The RDP is installed from its own DVD. See

http://www.hp.com/servers/rdp for information about RDP including a link to obtain evaluation licenses

or register your product. Refer to the RDP documentation for network environment setup, prerequisites

for the deployment server, and installation instructions.

• HP Storage Essentials HP is changing the economics of managing the data center. HP Storage

Essentials is the first open, standards-based suite of storage products designed to integrate into HP SIM.

• HP Insight Power Manager HP Insight Power Manager (IPM) is an integrated power monitoring and

management application that provides centralized control of server power consumption and thermal

output at the datacenter level. It extends the capacity of datacenters by enabling the user to control the

amount of power and cooling required for ProLiant servers. Built on ProLiant Power Regulator Technology,

it extends new server energy instrumentation levers into HP SIM for greater Unified Infrastructure

Management.

• Support for HP-UX Serviceguard clusters HP SIM recognizes HP-UX Serviceguard clusters and displays

them in the GUI. HP Serviceguard Manager opens when you click a Serviceguard cluster in a search

list and provides information on the clusters.
