MergePoint 5200
The MergePoint 5200 appliance provides secure Serial over LAN (SoL)
console access, power control and server hardware monitoring, along
with IPMI provisioning and service processor auto discovery. When
used in conjunction with DSView® 3 management software, the MergePoint
5200 appliance provides essential server coverage, which complements
the overall out-of-band management infrastructure.
The MergePoint 5200 appliance offers both a feature-rich Web user
interface as well as a command line interface that leverages the
Systems Management Architecture for Server Hardware Command Line
Protocol (SMASH CLP), a standards-based user and scripting interface
defined by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF). This provides
a single command line interface to manage servers from multiple
manufacturers, simplifying management, streamlining interoperability
and ultimately reducing operator errors.
The MergePoint 5200 appliance not only makes it easier to take
advantage of service processor features but also enhances service
processor functionality with add-on features. For example, the SoL
feature complements the continuous data logging capabilities, resulting
in additional security and auditing. Also, simultaneous power control
of multiple servers boosts the already existing power management
capabilities of service processors, including graceful shutdown
support for IPMI.
With easy-to-use IPMI provisioning capabilities and auto discovery
for server management technologies within the network, the MergePoint
5200 appliance is ideal for enterprise data centers as well as for
high performance computing (HPC) and other clustering environments.
