Oracle Hardware Simple Server Management at No Cost
Oracle provides a complete suite of server management tools.
These tools help you set up and maintain your engineered systems,
ZFS storage appliances,
stand-alone x86 and T-Series servers.
Whether you are trying to manage a single server
or an entire data center, we have enterprise-ready tools
that make server management simple.
At the heart of each of our servers
is Oracle's Integrated Lights Out Manager, or ILOM.
Oracle ILOM is an embedded service processor
that is accessible any time
when the server's electrical power cord is plugged in
even if the main server is powered off.
It provides best of breed fault management
and actively monitors the health of your server.
You can control the server power remotely,
you can view the server's video output in a virtual console,
and interact with the server with a remote keyboard and mouse.
You can even mount your desktop's DVD drive on an Oracle server,
all through Oracle ILOM.
Oracle's Hardware Management Pack
is a collection of tools and agents
that allow you to manage multiple servers in a seamless fashion.
This set of tools and agents runs on the host operating system,
and you use a collection of command line tools
to configure logical disk volumes,
update the format on the server,
configure Oracle ILOM, as well as change BIOS settings.
The pack also comes with an SNMP agent
for monitoring the health of the server
including the disk, as well as the controller status.
Beginning with our latest Oracle x86 servers,
the X3-2 class of servers,
we have a new innovation called the Oracle System Assistant.
This tool comes built into each and every one of these servers,
and allows you to be up and running quickly.
It is a beautiful wizard that walks you through each step
of configuration of the server
and installation of the operating system.
It connects back to Oracle over the internet
to ensure that you have all of the latest drivers and firmware,
and prepares the system
for installation of the operating system.
This tool allows you to get your server up and running
in your data center promptly.
In order to provide a comprehensive set of tools
for server management,
we developed Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center.
This enterprise-class software tool allows you to discover,
configure and provision all of your servers
using a centralized management console.
This gives you a single view of all of your Oracle servers
allowing you to manage them from application down to disk.
What makes Oracle server management products special
is that they're all engineered to work together.
ILOM interfaces with Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center.
The Hardware Management Pack communicates with Oracle ILOM,
and the System Assistant
is built on top of the Hardware Management Pack.
All of these tools work seamlessly
for a complete server management portfolio.
All of our server management products are free
and included with each server that you purchase,
from ILOM, to Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center,
the Hardware Management Pack
as well as the Oracle System Assistant.
