Chapter 2. Planning and Deployment

2.1 DEPLOYMENT PLANN ING

Smart Grid can support flexible web deployment plans, and uses entire or any part of the product functionality based on the scenarios. For the

application scenarios of server devices that only need power consumption monitoring, the managed servers need to support Intel Intelligent Power

Node Manager technology, and its BMC IP network is connected to Smart Grid Server network. For the application scenarios of server devices that

require power consumption monitoring and performance monitoring simultaneously, Smart Grid server must also be able to get access to the operating

system of managed server through network.

2.1.1 CENTRALIZED PO WER CONSUMPTION MANAGEMENT FOR MULTIPLE SERVERS IN LAN

The centralized power consumption management is performed for multi-servers in LAN, which requires the monitoring terminal, Smart Grid server and

managed device are in the same LAN.

Then, you can deploy Smart Grid services on the monitor terminal, but when you have more than 5 sets of managed devices, it is recommended to

use a dedicated server as the Smart Grid server to avoid compromising the effectiveness of management. After the deployment, end users can get

access to Smart Grid by using a web browser from any terminal in the LAN and perform power consumption management to all networked managed

devices. For the management capacities and configuration requirements of Smart Grid servers, please refer to Section 1.3 Operating Environment of

the Product.

Note: It is not recommended to install and run Smart Grid server terminal on the business server regardless of any deployment method, because

Smart Grid server terminal will consume a certain amount of memory and CPU time, which may affect the operation of the business system.
