Monitor
When systems are up and running, administrators can use Sun N1 System
Manager to monitor system health, helping to ensure that everything is running
at the optimal levels. The software provides detailed hardware monitoring for
attributes such as fans, temperature, disk, and voltage usage, including bare
metal systems. Sun N1 System Manager also monitors OS attributes such as swap
space, CPU, memory, and file systems. Administrators can define specific
threshold levels and set preferred notification methods, including e-mail, pager, or
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps, for each monitored
component as business needs demand.
•
Manage
Businesses require that infrastructure life cycle management extend beyond just
deploying and monitoring systems. Sun N1 System Manager includes Lights Out
Management capabilities, such as powering systems on and off, and remote serial
console access to help IT organizations manage their IT infrastructure from remote
locations. Leveraging Sun N1 System Manager software’s Role-Based Access
Control (RBAC) feature, organizations can grant permissions to specific users to
perform specific management tasks.
•
Hybrid User Interface
Sun N1 System Manager offers users a hybrid user interface (UI), accessible from
the Web, that integrates both the GUI and CLI into one console. With this hybrid
UI, operations performed in the GUI are simultaneously reflected in the CLI, and
vice versa.
