You already know and use Vertiv™ Power Insight to oversee your growing power infrastructure for your data center and edge sites. With the ability to monitor up to 100 Vertiv uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) and rack power distribution units (rPDUs), this application provides you with holistic visibility into power supply and performance, as well as the ability to shutdown compute based on critical power events.
Vertiv Power Insight integrates seamlessly with VMware® vSphere management platform (previously called VMware vCenter). vSphere also displays information from VMware ESXi. As a result, you can now use this single pane of glass to monitor and configure your power devices for both physical servers and virtual machines. Use the plugin to:
Vertiv™ Power Insight
Gain Centralized and Granular Visibility
Improve your insight into the power resources supporting mission-critical applications. View critical resources supporting your virtual machines, including UPSs, rPDUs, and physical servers. Drill down on key data points to view individual device performance and make informed decisions about operations.
Maintain Constant Situational Awareness
Monitor UPS and rPDU status and performance directly from one dashboard: Vertiv Power Insight seamlessly transmits data to vSphere.
Work More Efficiently
There’s no need to log into multiple systems. Easily associate servers and hosts with Vertiv devices in VMware vSphere. View power conditions, configure alarms and notifications, and automatically and manually shut down devices – all from the vSphere dashboard.
Automate Failovers to Protect Vital IT Resources
Execute controlled shutdowns of virtual machines to protect the integrity of your business operations. For more complex configurations, use clustering or vSan to trigger automated migrations to healthy resources.
