server being defined through a logical server profile, administrators can tackle problems in ways previously impossible: • Assign and manage logical server profiles based on business function rather than server . Logical servers in an HP BladeSystem environment HP logical servers offer the - HP DL360 | Introducing logical servers: Making data center infrastructures more - Page 6
machines to provide abstraction and mobility for the widest range of server resources and applications. • Improves security by allowing lock-down services to bring together comprehensive management solutions including a variety of programmatic and graphical user interfaces. The relationships that HP - HP DL360 | Introducing logical servers: Making data center infrastructures more - Page 7
. Insight Dynamics - VSE further expands on these capabilities by adding support for ProLiant and BladeSystem c-Class servers, adding new logical server management, and adding improved tools with linkages across the HP portfolio.
