According to Tracy Morgan, vice president of operations 

at Entre BTG, “Being able to roll out patches, updates, 

and drivers from one central point has significantly 

impacted the amount of time the Agnes Scott IT 

organization spends on system maintenance every month. 

The IT staff has saved at least 85 percent in time alone 

because they no longer have to scroll through different 

servers to make changes.” 

Reducing Power Consumption by 17 percent

Power consumption in the upgraded and simplified server 

room has dropped by 17 percent. The IT team was able 

to remove an inefficient combination of tower servers, 

racks and shelving in the server room and replace them 

with three HP 10000 G2 Series Racks, fitted with HP 

10000 Roof Mount Fan accessories. “The fan pulls heat 

right up and out of the rack,” Miller says. “We just had 

a grueling Georgia summer, but the server room never 

rose above 68 degrees. That’s unusual.” 

Another cooling factor is that the team got rid of 18 

monitors in the room. The new servers are connected to 

an HP IP Console Switch with Virtual Media and can be 

worked on locally from a single HP TFT7210R rack 

mount flat panel monitor and keyboard.

Room to Grow—and Do More

The high levels of performance in its new HP ProLiant 

Servers have enabled the Agnes Scott IT group to add 

more users as the network demand increases and to 

easily increase storage levels to accommodate those 

users. Miller estimates that he has been able to increase 

the number of users per server by about 15 percent, 

and since he was able to add more storage to his servers 

at a lower cost, he’s in the enviable position of having 

a supply of storage that he can use to respond when 

new projects arise.

“The IT staff has saved at least 85 percent 

in time alone, because they no longer have 

to scroll through different servers to 

make changes.”
