IC-CIDeR backs up entire virtual systems during operation and offers automated, flexible backups with one click. Take advantage of image backups processed according to a schedule and compressible directly on tape (e.g. with Tivoli Storage Manager) and manage your virtual world by means of differentials and backup generations at an affordable price. Including VCB support.

IC-MoRe monitors the status oft he ESX servers and the virtual machines. The administrator is informed immediately whenever a threshold is reached (e.g. the drive has run out of space) or an event occurs (e.g. VM is in snapshot mode).

After having received the detection and evaluation of critical events by system management solutions, IC-PreCog shifts affected virtual machines prematurely and automatically onto other EESX servers. Even the entire virtual server farm can be shifted to to the backup data center – all that during operation. The overall stability of the systems is increased to the maximum since no downtime influences the operation of the guest systems..

IC-RICS monitors VMware ESX servers and their virtual machines in the server farm together with VMware VirtualCenter. IC-RICS increases the availability for all guest systems supported by VMware on ESX servers:In case of one or more ESX server failure, IC-RICS restarts the VMs on the EXS Servers that are still running, making applications and appliances available again after only a short period.

IC-TAM enables data centers to bill the actual usage of virtual machines over a specific time period. Virtual servers are divided into logical groups – by department, work group, cost center or customer, for example – and reports are then created of the actual costs incurred per unit. By this means IC-TAM allows the allocation of the actual costs of a virtual machine based on usage.

With IC-SchED you can define workload profile processing event-controlled and according to a schedule. IC-SchED simplifies significantly the planning and management of server capacity utilization. It enables an automated increase in ESX server capacity for maintenance purposes, for example. Thus the operation of your virtual landscape is linked with an energy- efficient management so you can profit from the economical and ecological benefits of green IT.
