Lenovo XClarity Energy Manager
Lenovo XClarity Energy Manager is a web-based power and temperature management solution designed for
data center administrators. It monitors and manages the power consumption and temperature of servers,
such as Converged, NeXtScale, System x, ThinkServer, and ThinkSystem servers, using the out-of-band
method. Lenovo XClarity Energy Manager models data center physical hierarchy and monitors power and
temperature at the server/group level. By analyzing monitored power and temperature data, Lenovo XClarity
Energy Manager greatly improves business continuity and energy efficiency.
With Lenovo XClarity Energy Manager, administrators can take control of power usage through improved
data analysis and lower the TCO (total cost of ownership). The tool optimizes data center efficiency by
allowing administrators to:
• Monitor energy consumption, estimate power need, and re-allocate power to servers as needed via IPMI
or Redfish.
• Track platform power consumption, inlet temperature, and component-level power consumption, such as
CPU and memory power consumption.
• Visually check the layout of room, row and rack via 2D thermal map.
• Show events and send e-mail or SNMP trap notifications when certain faults occur or certain thresholds
are reached.
• Limit the consumed amount of energy of an endpoint by setting up policies.
• Optimize energy efficiency by identifying hotspot or over-cooling servers to optimize cooling efficiency
and identifying low-usage servers to save energy.
• Reduce the power consumption to the minimum level to prolong service time during emergency power
event (such as a data-center power failure).

Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager
Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager is embedded software that provides a graphic user interface (GUI) for
configuring the system with support for 10 languages. It simplifies the process of configuring Basic Input
Output System (BIOS) settings and configuring Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) in a GUI
wizard. It also provides functions for updating applications and firmware, performing system diagnostics,
and automating the process of installing the supported Windows, Linux, or VMware ESXi operating systems
and associated device drivers.
Note: When you start a server and press F1, the Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager interface is displayed
by default. However, the text-based interface to system configuration (the Setup Utility) is also available.
From Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager, you can choose to restart the server and access the text-based
interface. In addition, you can choose to make the text-based interface the default interface that is displayed
when you press F1.
Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager provides a system summary of all installed devices and includes the
following functions:
• UEFI setup . Use this function to configure UEFI system settings, such as processor configuration, start
options, and user security. You can also view POST events and the System Event Log (SEL).
• Firmware update . Use this function to update the firmware for Lenovo XClarity Controller, Unified
Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI), Lenovo XClarity Provisioning Manager, and operating system device
drivers.
