A key feature of the RD450 and all ThinkServer systems is its use of open industry standards and protocols, so it integrates seamlessly into your multi-vendor environment. That means you can use your existing management tools with the RD450 or feel free to try ours - many at no additional charge. The RD450 offers a suite of intuitive lifecycle tools that make management easy, so you can focus on IT projects that drive your business. These new tools include configuration, deployment and power-planning tools, as well as a tool for energy management.
