6. DELL USES SMS TO EMPOWER GLOBAL IT 80 Hierarchical SMS Servers support 100,000 computers / 135,000 servers Dell reduced the number of SMS servers from 102 to 80 Larry Kiernan, Global Vice President of Technology Engineering, Dell IT “At Dell, we’re all about scaling out rather than scaling up. Although that approach has definite advantages from a cost perspective, it also presents some unique challenges from an IT management discipline. To properly manage the systems on which our business depends, we need IT management solutions that can scale to support the entire Dell enterprise – and that can help small, centralized teams monitor, manage, and support that worldwide infrastructure.” Takis Petropoulos, Senior IT Systems Engineer, Dell IT “Deploying Windows Vista by using SMS will save us a lot of time and money. To users, Windows Vista is just another on-demand software application. When a user selects Windows Vista from the list of advertised applications, the User State Migration Tool preserves the user’s data and settings…”

7. DELL USES SCOM TO MONITOR GLOBAL IT A system that formerly monitored 5,000 servers now monitors 24,000+ Dell reduced the number of management servers from 76 to 24 David Rubio, Systems Engineer, Dell IT “The breadth of features MOM 2005 offers enabled us to develop significant custom integration and automation. Our Windows Server monitoring life cycle is almost completely automated now, thanks to the MOM application programming interface, the Microsoft Connector Framework, and other MOM 2005 features.” Lon Alonzo, Systems Engineer, Dell IT “With the addition of the Dell hardware management pack to MOM 2005 and the Dell OpenManage server administrator agents on Dell PowerEdge servers, we were able to extend the hardware monitoring capabilities. These PowerEdge-specific additions help MOM monitor for hardware events such as drive and fan failures, memory errors, temperature problems, and more.” Pragnesh Rathod, Project Manager, Dell IT “Dell IT is saving about $200,000 annually in effort hours thanks to the automation made possible by MOM and Dell OpenManage. In addition, our goal was to achieve server stability across the organization with a standardized and centralized systems monitoring infrastructure. We’ve done that and preserved scalability in the process.”
