Power management company, Eaton, has introduced its Intelligent Power Manager software version 1.43, strengthening its integration with VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager. The company’s newest version of Intelligent Power Manager software features a new user interface with vCenter’s Site Recovery Manager that includes both environment alarm and power alarm functions to initiate data replication.
“Eaton’s latest Intelligent Power Manager software addresses key priorities in the data center, simplifying power management processes, and most importantly, maximizing uptime and reliability to protect critical workloads,” says Hervé Tardy, vice president and general manager, Eaton Distributed Power Quality Division. “Enhancing operations and converged infrastructure deployment, Eaton continues to maximize business value through product innovation and collaborations with major virtualization platforms.”
Eliminating the need to download additional modules for deployment, Eaton’s Intelligent Power Manager software is pre-configured to operate with VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager. The software is designed to automatically synchronize virtual machines and initiate recovery failover to avoid data loss and reduce downtime during a power event. It is also engineered to identify a power event immediately, initiating a backup site, and triggering VMware Site Recovery Manager’s disaster recovery failover and planned migration processes.
Eaton’s newest enhancement is the latest improvement upon Intelligent Power Manager software’s existing VMware integration, which enables IT personnel to view, monitor, and administer physical and virtual servers, in addition to UPSs, enclosure power distribution units (ePDUs), and other power devices, through the VMware vSphere 5.5 virtualization platform.
