Insight Control Power Management
Insight Control Power Management is a plug-in for HP SIM that provides the ability to visualize the
layout of servers and devices in racks and data center floors, summarizing temperature and power
consumption. It provides the capability to monitor and manage power capacity and utilization for
blades and c-class enclosures, and power delivery devices for data centers. It also enables you to
monitor inlet air temperature and 24-hour peak temperature for blades and c-class enclosures. For
HP Integrity NonStop BladeSystems, Insight Control Power Management provides both power and
thermal monitoring. It can also provide alerts on potential errors, lack of redundancy and
configuration anomalies.
OSM has been enhanced to allow a NonStop system to be powered down gracefully from Insight
Control Power Management. OSM also allows Insight Control Power Management to display CPU
utilization data for NonStop systems as it does for other platforms.
The Insight Control Power Management installer is included on the HP Insight Control for NonStop
DVD that ships with NonStop System Console Installer DVD, Update 17 (and later). For information
on installing Insight Control Power Management, see the NonStop System Console Installer Guide.
For information on using Insight Control Power Management, see the HP Insight Control Power
Management User Guide for the version you are using.
