VMware and HP Unveil Solution to Simplify Datacenter Management

September 2009 by Emmanuelle Lamandé

VMware and HP announced a solution that will enable customers to manage both physical and virtual infrastructure through the VMware vCenter™ console. HP Insight Control for VMware vCenter™ Server, the first integration of its kind, was unveiled during HP’s Super Session keynote at VMworld 2009.

HP Insight Control for VMware vCenter Server will enable administrators to manage both the physical and virtual components of their virtualized infrastructure through the VMware vCenter console.

HP Insight Control for VMware vCenter Server will empower customers to:

 Automatically reduce server problems: IT staff can gain deep insight into their HP physical infrastructures through the VMware vCenter console. If HP tools detect a potential failure, an alarm is passed to the VMware vCenter console, placing the server in maintenance mode while VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), a component of VMware vSphere™ 4, automatically relocates the virtualized workload to a different host. In addition to ensuring uptime for virtual environments, HP Insight Control is a powerful solution to help manage physical servers.

 Increase IT staff efficiency: With HP Insight Control for VMware vCenter Server, administrators will have access to the information they need to quickly resolve problems. This eliminates the need to switch between consoles to identify hardware issues that may impact application availability.

 Manage infrastructure globally: Customers will be able to remotely manage and troubleshoot VMware virtualized HP ProLiant and BladeSystem servers using HP Integrated Lights Out Advanced capabilities directly from the VMware vCenter Server console, resulting in quicker resolution of system issues and increased server uptime,

 Reduce energy costs: Intelligent power measurement and control through VMware Distributed Power Management (DPM) and HP Insight Control combined with energy-efficient HP hardware will help customers reduce power costs and their carbon footprint.

VMware and HP plan to continue to develop go-to-market programs that leverage both companies’ direct and channel sales forces.

Availability:

HP Insight Control customers are entitled to the VMware vCenter integrations when they purchase an HP Insight Control license. Pricing starts at $349 per server. The software is expected to be available in the first quarter of 2010.
