Overview
Hardware Monitoring provides powerful resources to monitor multi-vendor hardware servers. In large and heterogeneous environments, the solution detects the hardware components of almost all types of devices – physical, virtual and blade servers, SAN switches, tape libraries, and so on. Valuable health-related metrics, power consumption, electricity costs and CO₂ emissions data are automatically integrated to your BMC framework and OpenTelemetry-compatible platforms to help you rapidly detect and resolve IT problems before they impact critical systems.

Key Benefits
Inventory
Discover all of the internal components of servers, disk arrays, fiber switches and tape libraries.
Monitoring
Monitor the hardware of your heterogeneous infrastructure into one single console.
Diagnosis
Get detailed information about each monitored component (vendor, model, serial number, part number, FRU number, location in the chassis, etc.).
Reporting
Generate reports to know the capacity of the monitored system or the actual power consumption, electricity costs and CO₂ emissions for all servers and storage devices.
