Virtualization Ready
Designed for virtualization, the Dell™ PowerEdge™ T710 featuring Intel® Xeon® processors, embedded hypervisors and expanded memory and I/O (input/output).Dell™ next-generation PowerEdge™ T710 server offers enhanced system performance and more virtual machine per server capacity than previous generations.
Dell™ also provides a smart path to virtualization — a path grounded in choice and defined by industry standards. Customers can choose their hypervisor from developers such as VMware® or Microsoft®, enabling virtualization with a few clicks of a mouse.
Simplified Systems Management
The next-generation Dell™ OpenManage™ suite offers simplified operations and standards-based commands. It’s designed to integrate with existing systems for effective control.Dell’s Lifecycle Controller is built to simplify administrator tasks. It can perform a complete set of provisioning functions — such as system deployment, system updates, hardware configuration and diagnostics — from a single intuitive interface called the Unified Server Configurator (USC) in a pre-OS environment. This is designed to eliminate the need for multiple pieces of disparate CD/DVD media.
The Dell™ Management Console is designed to reduce manual processes, so more time can be spent on strategic uses of technology. Powered by Altiris from Symantec, it delivers a single view and a common data source into the entire infrastructure and offers an easily extensible, modular foundation for hardware, asset and security management.
