However, if you have Dell EMC™ OpenManage™ Enterprise Power Manager in place, your power zombie survival plan is already in motion.
Armed with the power history OpenManage Enterprise Power Manager compiled automatically, our zombie-hunter admin was able to detect the threat in a fraction of the time it would take to manually scour iDRAC9 server statistics, record power consumption results on a spreadsheet, and analyze the resultant data.
