THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE CONVERGED INFRASTRUCTURE

PROBLEMS TODAY WITH DATA CENTRE ENERGY

– #1 issue: Managing data centre power and cooling efficiency to maintain IT reliability

– Facilities and IT are not united in their view of energy management

– IT professionals are unaware of their maximum power density per rack

– Wasted data centre capacity due to over-provisioning energy requirements for systems

– Human error is a leading cause of outages

“My Data Centre is charging by the KW, how can I tell how much power I’m really consuming?”

HP INSIGHT CONTROL POWER MANAGEMENT

Centralised power management and thermal reporting.

Per server – per rack –per data centre

“In the past, we over provisioned power to the rack. Now we are running out of available power. I wish we could accurately forecast power consumption and cap for peaks.”

HP INSIGHT CONTROL POWER MANAGEMENT AND POWER CAPPING

Plan power consumption and set caps.

Free up power for the next project.

“We’ve added another rack and servers into our Data Centre. How can I confirm that the servers were correctly connected to redundant power?”

HP IPDU AND HP INTELLIGENT POWER DISCOVERY

Automatic power topology. Checks cabling to ensure server connected to redundant power.

Reduces risk of server outage

HP INSIGHT CONTROL POWER MANAGEMENT WITH DATA CENTRE POWER CONTROL

Pre-defined rules to handle power and cooling faults.

“We have some mission critical systems in our Data Centre, If something goes wrong with the power or cooling we need to act fast!”

INTELLIGENT POWER DISCOVERY

How it works

• HP Servers and HP PDUs exchange hostname, IP address

and serial number… over the power cord

• Insight Control discovers both, maps the data centre

•HP PDUs know what’s plugged in to each outlet

•HP Servers know where they’re connected and how much power they need

•HP Insight Control detects wiring errors and potential overloads, reports power needs to Data Centre Planning tools
