Power IQ is data center power management software that automates secure power monitoring and control of your equipment. Its easy-to-use scheduling feature allows you to control power to device groups at set times. It provides powerful analytics – such as active power level, energy consumption, customer costs, environmental readings, line capacities and carbon footprint – in minutes. Plus trending and cumulative total reports are available at any level including building, floor, room, rack, customer and IT device.
Devices equal a monitored IP address. For example, a single Dominion PX equals one device or a single APC PDU equals one device. Because environmental probes do not need IP addresses, they would not be considered devices.
Power IQ helps you become more effective in power capacity management and efficient in energy consumption by:
-
Automatically power cycling device groups by day and time
-
Enforcing energy saving initiatives such as, "all test bed servers are to be shutdown before 11PM"
-
Soft enforcement first with energy consumption reports
-
Hard enforcement with scheduled power control
-
-
Using temperature charts to avoid overcooling
-
Driving behavior with energy cost bill-back reports
-
Using decommission flags to forecast energy savings when eliminating servers
-
Measuring baseline consumption and tracking changes of various energy saving initiatives
-
Identifying stranded power capacity within your existing infrastructure so you can reduce capital expenditures
-
Simplifying PX configuration and firmware management
Plus security is ensured with standards-based authentication, Web session timeout and IP-based access control.
Through a single web browser, our highly scalable Power IQ manages Raritan, APC®, Avocent®, Cyber Switching®, Geist, HP®, MRV and Server Technology® Ethernet-enabled, metered and switched rack PDUs, as well as in-line meters. And because the system is open database compliant (ODBC), it can be integrated with your current reporting system.

Rack PDU Management |
|
Centralized Management |
Consolidates names, polling status, locations, models and firmware onto one screen and saves valuable management time. |
Bulk PX System Configuration |
Saves time and improves accuracy configuring outlet names and common parameters for 1 to 1,000 PX devices. Also allows you to save outlet names in an Excel® file for future reference and updates. |
PX Firmware Management |
Power IQ reduces the time it takes to administer PX firmware updates because it helps track and distribute those updates. |
Security |
|
LDAP/AD Integration |
Easily centralizes corporate authentication policies. |
Trusted Host Definition |
Our 100% Web-enabled system provides administrators with the option to restrict access to named hosts if such a level of security is desired. |
AES Encryption up to 256 Bits |
Protects your data with the industry’s most secure encryption standard. |
Versatility |
|
VMware® Virtual Appliance |
Runs on your VMware ESX or free VMware ESXi to save time, space and energy. |
Optional Appliance for Non-VMware Enterprises |
