Description
OpenManage Enterprise uses the modern
HTML5 standard for its UI while enabling
an elastic search engine that allows IT
administrators to find anything in the
console in a single search
administrators to establish one or more
firmware baselines for groups of the
PowerEdge servers in their environment.
Selectively update firmware that is not
compliant with the customer defined
baselines.
Configuration compliance policies allow IT
Administrators to establish one or more
configuration baselines for groups of the
PowerEdge servers in their environment.
Automate server HW configuration
deployment to a bare-metal PowerEdge
server and kick off unattended OS
installation process.
Edit the deployment template attributes
by using:
• Guided view
• Advanced view
Support for discovery, inventory,
configuration compliance and remediation
of MX7000 chassis-as a standalone
chassis and as a lead chassis in an Multi
Chassis Management (MCM) group.
You can assign virtual identities to servers
and perform stateless deployment
Support for the latest 14th generation
PowerEdge servers including the new
blade servers of MX7000 chassis.
REST API enhancements for network
configuration, identity pool creation,
device template configuration, and profile
management
Remediation of a server config that has
drifted against a defined baseline.
Benefits
Minimizes training time and maximizes
efficiency by delivering quick results on
searches involving devices, hardware and
software inventory, features, functions,
and so on. Also provides access from
various browsers, and mobile devices.
Provides a simple method of enforcing
minimum firmware levels for the
PowerEdge servers that eliminates human
error and minimizes downtime. Reinforces

Saves time and relies less on local IT
Administrators for provisioning and
configuring PowerEdge server hardware in
a reliable and consistent manner.
Provides ability to control template editing
via "guided view" for specific attributes,
such as BIOS, boot sequence etc to avoid
human error. Granular control for
sophisticated users via the "advanced
view" template editing
Provides unified support for rack, blades,
chassis from a single choice of console for
our customer
Stateless deployments enable to create a
server environment that is dynamic and
flexible by automatically generating and
assigning virtual identity attributes to the
I/O interfaces of a server
Provides unified support for multi-
generational rack, blades, chassis from a
single choice of console for our customer
Helps customer script from higher-level
frameworks to enable enhanced
automation in a datacenter environment
Helps keep datacenter in compliance to
configuration standards
