The Power to Control
Management Tools
for
Remote Locations and Data Centers
Session Objectives
• Identify Concerns and Objectives of Customers
• Explain Remote Management
• Identify Solutions
Efficient
IT Management
Practices
Identify Concerns of Customers . . .
• “Lights-Out” Initiatives Successful implementation of “lights-out facilities” requires the ability to perform tasks
typically performed by on-site staff. Remote management tools allow a company to
perform tasks remotely.
• Managing Remotely and not “Rolling a Truck” The average “Truck Roll” costs $250 - $375. When remote management is in place, over
92% of problems are isolated and fixed within minutes – not hours or days.
• Reduction of IT Staff in the Data Center Corporations are being forced through government and corporate initiatives to get the
human error factor away from critical facilities. In order to maintain system integrity,
remote management has to be put in place.
• Layoff Stories are Old News Remote management can greatly enhance a corporation’s ability to monitor and
to manage systems with reduced staff.
Identify Objectives of Customers . . .
• Achievement of Higher ROI’s Remote service capabilities diminish the time factors associated with wait, travel, diagnosis and
repair due to system failure or human error.
• Convenience of Remote Communications By managing power, data and the environment remotely, you reduce the likelihood of
“rolling a truck.”
• Realization of a Sustainable Competitive Advantage Diverse enterprises continually strive towards the best industry standards, including: IT integration,
successful business continuity programs, “Five Nine” infrastructure systems and compliance with
corporate and governmental regulations.
Remote Management for IT Infrastructure
• Three critical areas for successful implementation
– Managed Power for IT Equipment
• On, Off and Reboot
– Monitoring of Power and Physical Environment
• Amps, Watts, Temp and Humidity
– Communication with IT Equipment
• Console and KVM
Managed Power for IT Equipment
• Practices used in the past include:
– Costly deployment of service
personnel to reboot locked data
and communication systems.
– Inefficient use of metering
devices to test loads on a
scheduled time frame.
Managed Power for IT Equipment
(On, Off, Reboot)
• Product solutions in use today include:
– Remote Power Control
and Metering
– Power Metering
and Environmental Sensors
• The essentials of managed power can range
from simple monitoring to the wider range of
control and detailed reporting.
Managed Power for IT Equipment
(On, Off, Reboot)
• Reboot Unresponsive
Equipment
–
The ability to control power to the
receptacle level allows staff to remotely
reboot locked equipment and turn off
unused receptacles.
• Turn Off Unused Receptacles
–
Inadvertent tripping of breakers can
be eliminated by leaving unused
receptacles in the off position.
• Make Informed Decisions
–
(Screen Shot of GPM Software)
Circuits can be easily audited for
capacity prior to turning on receptacles.
Additionally, part of this process is
to
document what is assigned to
this
receptacle.
Monitoring of Power & Physical Environment
(Amps, Watts, Temp, Humidity)
• Environmental monitoring is key to maintaining the
life expectancy of IT equipment.
• “An 18 degrees increase in temperature over 70
degrees can drop life expectancy as much as 50%.”

Monitoring of Power & Physical Environment
(Amps, Watts, Temp, Humidity)
• Monitoring the Power
Environment
–
–
Managed Power provides
continuous monitoring and
reporting of current, voltage
and power in watts and VA.
High and low thresholds can
be set for immediate notification
via SNMP and E-mail.
Watts can be directly converted
to BTU for planning of the cooling
infrastructure.
• Monitoring the Physical
Environment
–
High temperature reduces the
life expectancy of IT equipment.
Building automation typically
reads the situation outside the
cabinet. These solutions provide
information regarding conditions
inside the cabinet.

Communication with IT Equipment
• Communication with IT equipment is integral for
successful implementation of “lights-out”. IT staff must
be able to remotely troubleshoot communication and
data systems.
Communication with IT Equipment
(Console and KVM)
•
•
•
•
•
Console Access via IP
Console Access via embedded modem
Per port username and password
Secure Shell or Telnet connections
Multi and Single User Solution
– With remote management in place IT staff can:
• Connect to a server or router
• Determine it is locked
• Reboot it
• Watch it come alive from thousands
of miles away.
• BayTech does not manufacture KVM. However, we partner with
several KVM companies to bring together a united solution.
Remote Management Provides . . .
Continuous Return on Investment
• Unresponsive equipment is rebooted remotely.
• Response time to network and server problems
is instantaneous.
• Equipment is monitored and controlled from anywhere
and at anytime.
• Environmental problems are isolated sooner.
• Monitoring of power is proactive and continuous.

• Most customers have already established these standards.
As seen in the table above, higher voltage offers more power
capacity per circuit.
Establish the Voltage and Current
Requirements
• Determine the Input and Output Cords and Receptacles
– Input power cords can be either locking or non-locking.
– RPC’s and RPS’s ship with a standard 7’ power cord;
required customized lengths may be requested also.
– Output power receptacles are either the NEMA or IEC
style.
• Power cord and receptacle type are typically the most
problematic aspects of the product selection stage.
Establish the Voltage and Current
Requirements
• Determine the density of the build.
– Low Density: 4 - 8 devices
– Medium Density: 9 - 16 devices
– High Density: 16+ devices
• Consider the number of power cords incorporated into
each device. With today’s N+1 standard most equipment
is dual corded.

Mounting
• When choosing mounting options,
several aspects should be considered.
Establish the Voltage and Current
Requirements
• Vertical Mounting Considerations
Inside Enclosures
– Is there enough depth and width in the enclosure?
(4”- 6” clearance from the back of the mounting rails is recommended)
– What are the height restrictions for the enclosure?
– Are there horizontal guide rails in the way?
– Will there be enough room for power cord management?
• Retrofitting existing enclosures can be quite challenging.
The majority of older enclosures were shallow rather than wide.
Establish the Voltage and Current
Requirements
• Horizontal Mounting Considerations
– Is “U-Space” available?
– How will power cords be managed?
– Based on the number of receptacles required, how many “U’s”
will be used?
– Taking power cord and data cable management into
consideration, where will the units be mounted?
• U-Space is “real-estate” to data center managers. Careful
consideration should be given to vertical mounting options.
Determine the Method of Connectivity
• There are 4 primary methods of connectivity for the
RPC’s and RPS’s. The size and scope of the solution
should dictate which method is used.

Dial-up
• There are considerable cost considerations
in this phase of the selection process.
Determine the Method of Connectivity
• The more Ethernet connections - the higher the cost.
• Consider using the DS / F- Series controllers when
the solution contains more than 6 RPC’s or RPS’s.
• Remote locations with less then 6 strips should
consider.
– RPC’s with Ethernet Ports
– Connecting RPC’s or RPS’s to the RES (EMW) controllers
• An Ethernet port on a network switch typically cost $150 - $200.
RPC’s with Ethernet ports cost more. When the two are combined,
the application cost can rise an average of 28%.
Determine the Method of Connectivity
• RPC’s with Ethernet
connections can directly
connect to network ports
on switches and hubs.
• This method is best suited for smaller “stand alone” solutions.
Determine the Method of Connectivity
• RPC’s and RPS’s
with RS-232 ports can
be connected to the
RES products.
• This method is best suited for smaller “stand alone” solutions.
Determine the Method of Connectivity
• RPC’s and RPS’s
can be connected to
the RS-232 Ports of
the DS-Series or F-Series
products.
• This method is best suited for larger enterprise solutions.
Determine the Method of Connectivity
• The RPC’s or RPS’s are connected via RS-232 from
the RPC to the DS / F- Series.
