HP SUM 5.0 offers several advantages: It improves the efficiency of ProLiant server, BladeSystem server, and BladeSystem enclosure updates by preloading only what is needed and enabling online components. It lets you schedule updates and reboots to occur at convenient times and gives you the option to maintain multiple repositories to apply updates consistently. It provides faster online updates for enclosures through improvements in Onboard Administrator and Virtual Connect update times. It supports HP CloudSystem. HP rack technologies Our latest generation of racks has higher airflow efficiency and is deeper to accommodate ProLiant Gen8 servers. They are also designed for implementing HP Discovery Services. HP Intelligent Series Rack The elegant design of the next-generation HP Intelligent Series Rack (Figure 2) complements the design of ProLiant Gen8 servers and facilitates its industry-leading airflow efficiency. The rack provides 81% airflow capacity (compared to the capacity with the doors open). We increased the standard depth of Intelligent Series Racks from 1000 mm to 1075 mm to improve cable management for ProLiant Gen8 servers. The extra space between the back of the servers and the rear doors also enables better air movement and higher cooling efficiency. We increased the dynamic loading of the Intelligent Series Rack to a total of 2,300 lb. per rack-300 lb. more than our previous generation racks. This adds to our ability to preload racks at our Factory Express centers and then ship them to your site fully loaded and ready to go.

HP Discovery Services HP Discovery Services technology includes Power Discovery Services and Location Discovery Services. Power Discovery Services ProLiant Gen8 servers and HP Intelligent Series Racks support Intelligent Power Discovery (IPD). IPD components include: One or more Intelligent Power Distribution Units (iPDUs), each with a management module and six or twelve monitored C-19 outlets One or more Intelligent Extension Bars, each with five monitored C-13 outlets IPD power cords with embedded RS-232 data lines HP Common Slot Platinum Plus Power Supplies with IPD connectors that support serial communication When you connect these components as shown in Figure 3, the iPDU automatically detects and communicates with each server's iLO Management Engine before the servers are powered on.
