LANDesk Server Manager triggers a lifestyle change in the way you manage your data center allowing server operations to move from a reactive mode, where servers are managed in a one by one
fashion, to a proactive and controlled mode, where deployments and changes are planned and tested once before being deployed many times using reusable modular configuration templates. The
consistency and conformity that this approach brings creates a solid foundation or baseline so that configuration changes can be planned and deployed in a controlled and reliable manner. This
leads to higher levels of operational efficiency and highly reliable systems that remain secure and compliant with corporate server policy.
LANDesk Server Manager allows for heterogeneous server environments to be managed in a more homogeneous way by allowing standard configurations of servers to be managed and deployed in the
data center across multiple physical and virtual server platforms. The design once and deploy many methodology provides a high degree of control and allows for automation of major operational
tasks such as provisioning, patching and software distribution.
When used in combination with Avocent DSView 3 software, the scope of server operations is extended to include a complete out-of-band management solution. This approach complements the
systems management functionality of LANDesk Server Manager by allowing for Always On remote access to server hardware that is a requirement of lights out data centers and delivers true remote
management.
