NEC ESMPRO Manager and Agent
NEC ESMPRO Manager and NEC ESMPRO Agent are server management software programs that
are designed for stable operation of server systems and efficient system operation. NEC ESMPRO
Manager allows for monitoring configuration information/operation status of servers such as CPU
blades when it is installed on the EM console or LAN console. NEC ESMPRO Agent allows for
quick reporting of server failure information to the management console if it is installed on servers
such as CPU blades. This section provides the precautions on the EM card functions. For
information on how to install, configure, and operate NEC ESMPRO Manager and NEC ESMPRO
Agent, refer to their installation and user's guide/operation manuals.
If NEC EXPRESSBUILDER is installed on your CPU blade, you can use NEC ESMPRO Manager
and NEC ESMPRO Agent from NEC EXPRESSBUILDER.
