PRIMERGY ServerView Management Agents Collect data

Respond to SNMP requests

Generate HW-specific traps

PRIMERGY agents are responsible for hardware information

Simply have a look inside …Graphical state of the art presentation of component states


Resolving issues before your service is impaired ServerView runs PDA = Prefailure Detection and Analysis

PDA is watching for degradation of “good” values

At “low” value, a warning is sent

Increase reliability proactively

Exchange component timely before failure


Quick localization of broken parts reduce downtime & save service costs Locator Light, System State, LocalView Display & onboard LEDs


Alarm Management


Always knowing what’s up:Best-in-class Alarm Management for proactive management
