Automating Solution Generation: HP Smart Solver

Consolidation to VMs. Automated system consolidation to VMs allows you to consolidate your existing physical systems into virtualized resources, thereby converting the physical systems into VM guests hosted on VM hosts. You are provided options to use existing VM hosts or to create template-generated “what-if” systems based on characteristics that you specify. This feature makes it possible for you to replace or upgrade existing legacy systems and have fewer servers to manage, thus reducing overall cost of ownership.

Workload Stacking. Automated workload stacking allows you to stack individual workloads onto existing servers and/or template-generated “what-if” systems created based on system characteristics specified by them. This facility allows you to consolidate their existing workloads into as few systems as possible.

Load Balancing. Automated load balancing of servers or VMs provides capabilities to balance system loads across several servers or VMs, such that workloads are distributed evenly across a set of resources, without overloading the subset of the servers.
