NEC ESMPRO
The NEC ESMPRO (referred to as ESMPRO hereafter) lets a system administrator manage remote servers across a
network. ESMPRO monitors the server hardware and software configurations, failures, and performance. With log data
collected by ESMPRO, a system administrator can track long-term and short-term performance, monitor server usage,
create graphs to record trends, and check the server failure rates. The administrator can use the information collected to
create more efficient data routing procedures and optimize server usage.
Functions and Features
The ESMPRO offers many functions and features to manage the remote servers across a network. These features help
the system administrator perform daily system operation, system extension, and transfer tasks. Some features of the
ESMPRO Manager include:
Hardware and software server configuration
– Hardware resources mounted in the servers, such as the processor, memory, disks, RAID System, and LAN
boards.
– Software resources, such as operating system information and drivers running on each server.
Server failures
– On-screen real-time displays provide the system administrator with the failure type, location, cause, and
suggested corrective actions.
– Failure data includes hardware failure information such as system board temperature, memory failure,
crashes, and software failure information.
Performance
– ESMPRO monitors the server performance and the server usage and displays information, such as the rate
of processor load, memory usage, disk usage, and LAN traffic. Usage threshold values can help the system
administrator monitor and prevent server overloads.
For installation procedure and detailed explanations on NEC ESMPRO, refer to the online documentation on the
EXPRESSBUILDER DVD.
Additional Information
