ManageEngine Adds Power Management to DCIM Portfolio

Integrates Intel DCM to Reduce Data Center Energy Usage

ManageEngine, the real-time IT management company, has launched the Intel DCM Energy Management plug-in for RackBuilder Plus, its 3D visual modeling software for data centers.

As a result of leveraging Intel Data Center Manager (Intel DCM), the new plug-in lets admins know the power usage and temperature of their data center floors, racks and devices announced the press release.

“Our partnership with Intel brings together leading-edge capabilities in energy monitoring and DCIM visualization,” said Dev Anand, Director of Product Management at ManageEngine. “Intel’s energy manager is now available as a plug-in for our RackBuilder Plus to help admins get the heat map view of their racks, apply power capping over energy-intensive equipment, measure and report on energy metrics such as PUE and conduct energy audits periodically.”

“While Intel DCM simplifies data center energy operations by providing a single solution that covers all the different server OEM protocols and proprietary techniques for power management, Intel’s DCM software stack just makes it easier for data center software and hardware vendors to integrate the DCM capabilities into their offerings,” said Jeff Klaus, General Manager for Intel DCM Solutions.

The new Intel DCM Energy Management plug-in monitors the power and temperature of the data center devices via various protocols such as iDRAC, IPMI, DCMI and SNMP. The plug-in helps admins monitor the power consumption and temperature of each device. RackBuilder Plus collects this data and provides actionable information on the power consumption and temperature for the data center floor, the individual racks and the individual devices.

The Intel DCM Energy Management plug-in for RackBuilder Plus is available for download at http://www.manageengine.com/data-center-visualization/energy-management.html. Its pricing starts at $199 per rack.
