Orgabat V.Net Software Managing your IT infrastructure has never been easier Data room and hardware layout With Orgabat V.Net, you can position racks either automatically or according to the operator s preferences. The software positions each rack according to the rack s characteristics and the rules for each building. The software also offers a semiautomatic installation option covering all equipment and cabling. Air conditioning Orgabat V.Net displays all cooling circuit components, and can dynamically generate metrics for specific objects (data room, rack, etc.) based on either integrated data, data from SNMP, Modbus, or LonWorks communication devices, or data from a database such as a Building Management System (BMS) database. 3D Modeling The software generates 3D models that give operators a virtual-reality environment where they can monitor equipment without having to create 3D drawings. This makes it easy to identify physical characteristics and paths, so that operators always know which racks are available and which racks are being used. Unique on the market, Orgabat V.Net s 3D modeling feature marks a major step forward in datacenter management and administration. The software generates drawing files in.dwg format for use with professional software packages like AutoCAD and CATIA. 4
Capacity planning and reports Orgabat V.Net s integrated reportgenerating feature can be used to track a full range of indicators for various objects (datacenter, data room, area, rack, or piece of equipment), giving operators real-time information on the facility s operations, including: Power consumption Maximum power Maximum heat dissipation Available rack space (front and rear) Available switch positions... The software can be configured to send out an alert if a given threshold is exceeded, triggering preventive actions and reducing the likelihood of an incident. Your facility in 3D Cable management Operators can navigate within Orgabat V.Net s 3D virtual reality environment changing the viewing angle and displaying or hiding each piece of equipment for a detailed, accurate overview of all or part of their facility at any given time. Orgabat V.Net also manages all fixed and patch cables and automates routine cabling tasks (for adding, removing, changing, or moving equipment). The software offers powerful cabling features, such as: For a given component, Orgabat V.Net can generate a graphical display of each link along the circuit as well as connector availability. For a given equipment or cable failure, Orgabat V.Net can forecast the effects of the failure and propose an alternative solution. If the operator decides to approve the proposed workaround, the software can automatically generate the corresponding work orders. 5
