HP Insight Power Manager 2.0 |
|
HP Insight Power Manager (IPM) is an integrated power monitoring and management application that provides centralized monitoring and control of datacenter power consumption and thermal output. This software solution provides new energy instrumentation levers into HP Systems Insight Manager for greater Unified Infrastructure Management, and is compatible with any operating system residing on the managed server. IPM provides efficient and effective tools needed to increase the capacity of your datacenter by reducing power and cooling requirements of ProLiant servers to an amount that accurately reflects the workload of your server. Built upon ProLiant Power Regulator technology it provides performance when you need it, and cost savings when you don't. |

Standard Features
| Centralized User Interface for Power and Thermal Management |
Tightly integrated into HP SIM, the Insight Power Manager
provides a central location where Power and Thermal data for tens, hundreds,
or thousands of servers may be viewed and managed.
|
| | |
| Power Consumption graph |
The Power Consumption graph displays the Average and Peak
Power Consumption for the selected server or collection of servers.
The Average Power Consumption data points show the arithmetic mean for the power consumed over the time period represented by a single point on the graph. The line formed by the Average Power Consumption data points shows the steady-state power consumption of the server. The Peak Power Consumption data points show the highest power consumption over the time period represented by a single point on the graph. The line formed by the Peak Power Consumption data points shows the short-term spikes in power consumption. Data may be displayed in Watts or Btu-hr units of measure. The time scale for the graph may be adjusted to show hours, days, weeks, months or years. |
| | |
| CPU Performance graph |
The CPU Performance graph displays the aggregated CPU
Utilization and the Effective CPU Speed of the selected server.
The aggregated CPU Utilization is the CPU utilization for all processor cores averaged together. The line formed by the CPU Utilization data points shows the workload on the server. The Effective CPU Speed shows the resulting gigahertz (GHz) of the server's CPUs after calculating the effect of HP Power Regulator down-shifting the CPUs to lower speeds for power saving reasons. In HP Dynamic Power Savings Mode, the Effective CPU Speed will move up and down as required to accommodate the workload of the server. The time scale for the graph may be adjusted to show hours, days, weeks, months or years. |
| | |
| Inlet Air Temperature graph |
The Inlet Air Temperature graph displays the temperature
of the ambient air as it enters the selected server(s). The work performed
by the server(s) creates heat that must be cooled by the data center's
cooling system. The busier the servers, the more heat must be cooled to
maintain a constant data center temperature. A temperature trend line
is added for the selected server(s) to show if the data center temperature
is rising or failing over time.
Data may be displayed in Fahrenheit or Celsius units of measure. The time scale for the graph may be adjusted to show hours, days, weeks, months or years. |
| | |
| Power Capping |
Limiting the server(s) power consumption to an average
level, power capping can be set to minimize overall power consumption
and heat output.
|
|
|
|
| Dynamic Power Capping |
Dynamic Power Capping in HP Insight Control Environment
represents a significant advancement in power management. Unlike previous
power capping technologies Dynamic Power Capping will safely limit power
usage with no performance degradation and without risk to electrical infrastructure.
For single rack servers, power caps applied via the iLO management processor
will limit power usage to a specific Watt or BTU/hr level. For enclosures
of blades, users will set an enclosure level power cap, and the Onboard
Administrator will dynamically adjust individual server power caps based
on their specific power requirements. By capping power usage at historical
peak power usage instead of significantly higher face-plate, ROM burn,
or power calculator default values, IT organizations can fit up to 36%
more servers in their existing rack infrastructure.

|
|
|
|
| Analysis dashboard |
Each graph has an Analysis dashboard that summarizes key
information for the selected server(s). The data displayed varies for
each graph and includes total power consumed in kWh, the estimated costs
of powering and cooling the selected server(s) and the estimated costs
saved through the use of policy-management based on HP's Power Regulator
technology.
|
|
|
|
| Actions section and policy management |
The Insight Power Manager supports taking action on the
selected server(s). Insight Power Manager can change the HP Power Regulator
settings on a single server or on multiple servers all at once. These
actions may be executed immediately or scheduled to occur at a future
time or on a recurring basis. Action scheduling can be used to set time-based
power policies on single servers as well as collections of servers.
