Dell’s power management solution, the Dell™ OpenManage™ Power Center management console, provides increased visibility to power consumption, anomalies, and utilization through fine-grained instrumentation. This enables increased control, improved rack density, faster response times, greater accuracy, and broader decision-making intelligence.

Dell iDRAC7 Enterprise leverages Intel Node Manager technology for platform-level power reporting and capping of Intel chipsets. Power Center then communicates with iDRAC7 in Dell’s latest generation of servers to provide node, rack, row or data-center level aggregation of power-management data, as well as execution of control policy - making it easy for IT professionals to identify areas to gain efficiencies and cut wasteful costs.

Dell OpenManage Power Center enables you to:

• Measure energy consumed by IT equipment at a server, rack, row, or room level 

• Mitigate Risk by reducing power consumption per a pre-defined policies that maximize the uptime of business critical applications by reducing non-critical consumption

• Increase data center density by identifying racks with equipment not using the power capacity that has been wired into it.  This can be done safely with Dell PowerEdge12th Generation servers  and Power Center by implementing a rack level power cap policy 

Dell 12th Generation Server with Node Manager Features:

• Millisecond fast power capping - before tripping a circuit breaker
