Introduction
HP APM overview
HP APM is a rack-level point of contact for HP ProLiant Scalable System and HP Apollo administration. For a
full description of HP APM features and support, see the Quick Specs on the HP website
(http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/14189_div/14189_div.pdf).
HP APM enables:
• Discovery of server rack components by topology
• Node-level power monitoring and control
• Support of logging through standard syslog servers
• Support for power capping at the rack level
NOTE: The use of the term server represents nodes, server trays, server nodes, and cartridges.
SL APM has been replaced by HP APM. Though there is shared functionality, the two products should be
treated as mutually exclusive. The content included in this document is specific to HP APM, and is not
applicable to SL APM.
• For more information on SL APM support, see the HP ProLiant SL Advanced Power Manager User Guide
on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support/SLAPM_UG_en).
