User manual FUJITSU SIEMENS SERVERVIEW RESOURCE COORDINATOR VE 2.2 DATASHEET

[. . . ] This eliminates the need to check different management consoles, i. e. to monitor hardware states or power consumption. Furthermore, RCVE allows server administrators to easily confirm the network configuration in blade server environments. [. . . ] This enables administrators to manage a blade system from remote as if standing directly in front of it and allows also un-experienced staff to easily perform basic daily operations. Use of e-mail event notifications avoids the need to monitor the management console at all times. To speed up troubleshooting procedures, RCVE offers a one click display of technical support contact information on detection of errors. In addition, RCVE integrates with other hardware-specific management consoles when more detailed information is required. SIMPLE LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT RCVE enables fully-automated server deployment for entire server farms through integrated cloning and remote system image distribution capabilities. Compared to manual deployment processes, this accelerates assignment or re-assignment of applications to one or several virtual or physical servers significantly. Administrators can now setup and scale server farms more easily and much faster in response to workload increases or business expansion. Furthermore, RCVE makes it possible to create system image backups, which are centrally managed on the admin server. Leveraging the integrated fully-automated server deployment capabilities, RCVE also simplifies and speeds up hardware maintenance by easy and automated restoration of system images after hardware components have been replaced. Server downtime due to maintenance tasks can now be reduced to a minimum. COST-EFFICIENT HIGH-AVAILABILITY RCVE enables implementation of a cost-efficient N+1 high availability concept. IT managers can now protect more servers without paying a premium for dedicated HA software. By assigning one or more spare servers to one or more production servers it is possible to automatically failover those production servers to a spare server in case of hardware or operating system failure situations. Business applications can be resumed without any administrator intervention. Compared to manual recovery processes, server recovery time is reduced significantly resulting in faster reaction to server failures. This works in environments including both physical and virtual servers.
