Figure 3. Example user interface for managing logical servers HP Insight Dynamics - VSE leverages the already shipping software, Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager (VCEM), which allows administrators to seamlessly manage up to 1600 c-Class server blades (up to 100 c7000 enclosures) using a single console application. With VCEM, administrators have a single server edge/network management point for multiple c-Class enclosures, and do not have to manage Virtual Connect server edge/network configurations for each enclosure individually. The Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager provides a central pool of Virtual Connect LAN and SAN addresses for multiple enclosures. It allows administrators to logically link separate domains and move VC server profiles between Virtual Connect domains, as long as the servers are physically connected to the same networks. More information about Virtual Connect Enterprise Manager is available at www.hp.com/go/vcem. Conclusion For years, HP and other companies have been promoting virtualization and the Adaptive Infrastructure as a means to provide flexibility in the data center. Logical servers are a powerful way to deliver some of these benefits such as resource allocation for balancing workloads and seamless moves from test or development servers to production servers. With its logical server capability, HP is providing a unifying solution allowing administrators to maintain control over their entire server environments regardless of the underlying platforms and technologies used. 8
