Sun Management Center Software

Sun Management Center software is an element management system for monitoring and managing the Sun environment. Sun Management Center software integrates with the leading enterprise management systems to provide customers with a unified management infrastructure. The base package is free and provides hardware monitoring. Advanced applications (add-ons) extend the monitoring capability of the base package. Sun Management Center software provides:

Agents for managing Solaris OS (SPARC and x64/x86 platforms) and Linux operating systems

In-depth hardware and software diagnostics

Aggregate CPU utilization reporting

Event and alarm management for thousands of attributes

Corrective action automation through scripts triggered by alarm thresholds

Secure management controls for remote dynamic reconfiguration

The ability to customize modules with a powerful, easy-to-use GUI

Sun N1System Manager

The Sun N1System Manager is infrastructure lifecycle management software for deploying, monitoring, patching, and managing large and small installations of Sun systems. Sun N1 System Manager takes a step-by-step approach to unraveling the challenges of getting systems operational quickly:

Discover

As systems are added to the management network, administrators can use Sun N1 System Manager to discover bare metal systems based on a given subnet address or IP range.

Group

Given the number of systems to manage and the constant re-purposing of systems, it is critical for IT organizations to find ways to group resources together. Sun N1 System Manager enables users to logically group systems together and perform actions across a group of systems as easily as performing actions on a single system. Systems can be grouped by function (Web servers versus grid computing), administrative responsibility, or other categorization based on organizational needs.

Provision

Sun N1 System Manager remotely installs operating systems (Solaris OS, RedHat, or SuSE Linux) onto selected systems. Administrators can use this functionality to provision operating systems onto bare metal systems or reprovision existing systems. As the infrastructure life cycle continues, Sun N1 System Manager can update firmware and provision software packages and patches to selected systems.
