The PowerEdge server line
The PowerEdge family is engineered with the right
combination of features and performance scalability
to handle tough workloads for both large and small
data center environments.
The Dell OpenManage™ systems management
portfolio includes the Integrated Dell Remote Access
Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller. This
embedded feature helps IT Administrators manage
Dell servers in physical, virtual, local and remote
environments, operating in-band or out-of-band, with
or without a systems management software agent.
OpenManage integrates and connects to third-party
systems management solutions so you can maintain
your single point of control and capitalize on your
existing investment. OpenManage simplifies the
lifecycle of deploying, updating, monitoring and
maintaining your Dell PowerEdge servers.
