UCP DIRECTOR CAPABILITIESWeb- or server-based client application integrated with VMware vCenter andHitachi Command Suite for maximum operational efficiencyOverview Simple, scalable and agnostic Seamless integration with vCenter via richweb client Facilitates integration of UCP features withcustomers existing managementUnified orchestration and monitoring Monitors all elements of data center under 1view Provides overall health status of all elementsand indicates impending failures Mitigates downtime by directing appropriateactions Accelerates recovery in the event of adowntimeUCP Director Web ClientUCP Director Thick Client 14. Provision END-TO-END CONVERGED STACKProvision host Provision storage Provision networkDeploy ESXi image toconfigure hostAttach storage to configuredhostConfigure VLAN forphysical networkConfiguring end-to-end infrastructure is complex, time-consuming and error-prone 15. Install & configure multiple components: PowerCLI snap-in, AutoDeploy, PXE/TFTP and DHCP Find the right image and drivers online Use PowerShell command-line with PowerCLI to: Create and test an ESXi image profile with the correct drivers Create an Auto Deploy rule to map host profile & image profile Deploy the ESXi image to a host vCenteradministratorToo much time!!Host Deployment (without UCP Director) 16. Configuring End-to-End Converged Stack (with UCP Director)1. Select the server that you want to deploy2. Click Deploy Images Done!

UCP SOLUTION EVENTS AND ALARMS Provides native integration with vCentersreporting functionality, extending: Tasks: Report progress of UCP actionsperformed by user Events: Report status of UCP managedserver, networks and storage elements Alarms: Triggered by events to escalateproblems UCP registers 35+ new alarms withinvCenter to allow tracking infrastructurehardware and software problems These alarms are pre-defined and pre-registered within vCenter as a part ofUCP but can be suppressed/re-activatedby the customerEvents Panel 22.
