Overview

Power IQ helps you become more effective in power capacity management and efficient in energy consumption by providing:

  • Agentless graceful shutdown of Windows, Linux, and Unix device groups
  • Psychrometric chart to calculate possible energy savings from simply increasing temperature
  • Energy cost bill-back reports to drive behavior
  • Decommission flags to forecast energy savings when eliminating servers
  • Baseline consumption and changes of various energy saving initiatives
  • Capture peak loads under compute stress to identify excess power capacity in the rack
  • Security is ensured with standards-based authentication, Web session timeout and IP-based access control.

    Simplifies PX configuration and firmware management

    The system is open database compliant (ODBC) and includes a web service API for easy


    Features and Benefits

    Reports
    Cooling Chart Energy Efficiency – Understand if you are compliant with manufacturer and industry-accepted recommendations, and project how much energy you can save by increasing room ambient temperature.
    Trend Analysis Charts Reduce Downtime – Establish baselines and track long-term trends for energy consumption, power load, line current, temperature and humidity. Avoid project delays and downtime due to lack of power supply or circuit overloads.
    Carbon Footprint Charts Peace of Mind – Certify usage change from one period to another to support carbon credit claims.
    Energy Billback Charts Energy Efficiency – Drive energy conservation behavior by billing back energy consumption to users.
    PDU Health Chart Reduce Downtime – Easily spot power health incidents before they become serious problems.
    Vendor Agnostic Power Control
    Agentless Graceful Operating System Shutdown and Outlet Control Reduces energy costs under normal operations and extends battery life during power failure.
    Remote Power On/Off of Outlets, IT Devices, Device Groups and Racks Operational efficiency.
    Vendor Agnostic Data Aggregation and Grouping
    Group Data Via IT Device, Customer/Department, Rack, Row, Zone and Building Turns a large amount of detailed data into useful information to enhance capacity planning and energy efficiency initiatives.
    Collect Power Data: Outlet Current and Active Power; Line Current Draw and Available Current; Unit Active Power and Apparent Power Use one system for information aggregation.
    Collect Environmental Data from Temperature and Humidity Probes Find hot spots in your data center.
    User Configurable Polling The data polling can be configured from 15 seconds to 24 hours.
    User Configurable Data Retention System administrator can control data retention period.
    Open Data Model and Web Service API
    Open Database Connectivity Provides you with the flexibility to use your own reporting system, such as Crystal reports or SQL, to store and analyze data. This can save training time and lets you create the exact custom reports you require
    Web Service API Easily integrate to your systems and tools. Build your own customer applications for power control.
    Import and Export Data Via CSV File Leverage data and information between systems and organizations.
    Centralized Rack PDU Management
    Centralized Management Consolidates names, polling status, locations, models and firmware for all your rack PDUs onto one screen and saves valuable management time.
    Monitoring for Alerts and Threshold Violations Increase uptime by becoming aware of incidents before they become problems.
    PDU System and Outlet Naming Common tool to set names in bulk or one at a time to save time. Also allows you to save outlet names in an Excel® file for future reference and updates.
    Bulk PX System Configuration Saves time and improves accuracy for configuring common parameters for thousands of PX devices.
    PX Firmware Management Power IQ reduces the time it takes to administer PX firmware updates because it helps track and distribute those updates.
    Security
    LDAP/AD Integration Easily centralizes corporate authentication policies.
    Trusted Host Definition Our 100% Web-enabled system provides administrators with the option to restrict access to named hosts if such a level of security is desired.
    AES Encryption up to 256 Bits Protects your data with the industry's most secure encryption standard.
    Versatility
    VMware Virtual Appliance Runs on your VMware ESX or free VMware ESXi to save time, space and energy.
    Optional Appliance for Non-VMware Enterprises Easy-to install enterprise server with dual mirrored hard drives, redundant power and redundant fans.
