Release Notes for Cisco VFrame Data Center 1.1
OL-10402-01
Key Features
Macros
An open scripting interface that uses XML and Perl. This feature allows the
execution of custom user commands at predetermined events.
Lights Out Management Macros
Adapter scripts that provide power management functions for servers. These are
modular and provide a very flexible way to add server support.
Storage Macros
Modular adapters that provide a simple mechanism for Storage Array integration.
Role Based Access Control
VFrame allows multiple users to be given unique access privileges through role
definitions. The management of resources can also be segmented through the use
of virtual contexts. Virtual contexts provide separation between different
departments or customers accessing a common pool of resources.
Server Remote Boot Management
VFrame can provide PXE-based NFS boot for Linux servers and PXE/SAN-based
Fire Channel boot services for both Linux and Windows servers.
Server Image Management
Creates seamless server image snapshots to produce network-stored golden boot
images.
