Smart Server Manager v1.2 – Best Practices
4
Smart Server Manager overview
Smart Server Manager is a free serer system management solution for IT professionals to monitor and
receive proactive email alerts in the event of any system failure – be it hardware or software. This powerful
solution connects seamlessly to Acer servers via the onboard BMC chip available in most Acer server
systems.

The BMC allows for hardware management of all onboard components, including temperature,
memory, CPU, power voltage, and more. Smart Server Manager can also be set to send email alerts to IT
administrators in the event any of these monitored components experience a technical issue.
In addition, Smart Server Manager includes operating system (OS) monitoring for Windows and/or Linux
platforms, and virtual machine performance monitoring. Within the OS monitoring users can view the status
and remotely trouble running processes and applications, as well as view the system resource status of the
hardware being used by the given OS. In addition, users may set specific processes to be monitored and
send out an email alert in the event that application be interrupted for any reason.
Smart Server Manager monitors Virtual Machines (VMs) via its VM management function and supports
VMs from both VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V. The management tool allows for the performance of the
VM hosts and guest OS to be monitored to the component level (CPU, memory, disks, system, and
network). Smart Server Manager can also be set to record the performance history and proactively send
alerts in the event that any component is becoming a bottle neck, thereby allowing IT administrators to
determine whether to allocate more hardware resources to the VM.
Smart Server Manager is 100% agentless, meaning that it only needs to be installed once on a core
system, and then all other Acer servers on the network can be monitored – no additional installation
required. The system can support up to 250 devices (including physical hardware, OS, and VMs) and is
perfect for small to medium-sized IT network management.
