BLADEHarmony Manager v5.2, 250 Network Switches, w/3 Yr Sub
BLADEHarmony Manager is an application for remote monitoring and management of Ethernet switches from IBM. It provides point-and-click administration to simplify and centralize the management of your blade server and top-of-rack Ethernet switches. It is designed to improve service delivery while reducing management costs.
BLADEHarmony Manager provides detailed web-based configuration of switches, including the ability to perform switch management from a command-line interface (CLI). Multiple switches can be upgraded or configured simultaneously to simplify management of multiple Ethernet devices. Fault management and real-time performance statistics are also available. BLADEHarmony Manager can be integrated with IBM Systems Director.
IBM Systems Director Network Control V1.2, available separately, provides network management integrated into the server and storage management capabilities of IBM Systems Director, which is designed to help reduce the cost of managing physical and virtualized environments by using a single integrated management product. IBM Systems Director Network Control performs a limited set of configuration tasks for network devices, including management of network adapters and switches enhanced with storage fabric management for IBM network switches, both Ethernet
and FCoCEE, in a unified server, storage, and network environment. For example, IBM Systems Director Network Control can configure VLANs when a virtual machine is provisioned. IBM Systems Director gives clients the ability to leverage common tools across a single switch or many switches, which can improve productivity and reduce costs.
