The HP Virtual Server Environment (VSE)
is an integrated server offering that provides a flexible computing environment
to help you maximize the use of your server resources. HP VSE Management Software
provides the visualization, configuration, workload policy, and capacity planning
tools to optimize the system resources in your VSE. Use HP Integrity Essentials
Virtualization Manager to manage a pool of multi-OS, dynamically sizeable
virtual servers. Each virtual server can grow and shrink, based on service-level
objectives and business requirements, using HP Integrity Essentials Global
Workload Manager and the various VSE partitioning and utility pricing technologies.
Use HP Integrity Essentials Capacity Advisor to analyze your current server
resource utilization and plan for future workload expansion. Use HP Application
Discovery to inventory applications on managed systems and monitor their resource
usage.
