Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: selecting a reference phrase; presenting the reference phrase to a user; generating a voice signature the reference phrase when the reference phrase is vocalized by the user; storing the voice signature for reference phrase within a data center monitoring and management console; instructing the user to recite a subset of words from the reference phrase; and, granting access to the data center monitoring and management console when the subset of words match respective voice signatures stored within the data center monitoring and management console.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: monitoring data center assets within a data center; identifying an issue within the data center, the issue being associated with an operational situation associated with a particular component of the data center; associating the issue with a particular point in time; and, informing a user about the issue, the informing including information regarding the particular point in time, the informing including a graphical depiction of the particular component of the data center and the issue within the data center.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: entering a data center management mode, the data center management mode enabling a data center administrator user to selectively provide access to a subset of information available for use by the administrator user; determining whether to provide a designated user access to the subset of information; creating a monitoring console instance, the monitoring console instance providing the designated user access to the subset of information; and, enabling the designated user to access the monitoring console instance.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: monitoring data center assets within a data center; identifying an issue within the data center, the issue being associated with an operational situation associated with a particular component of the data center; generating a remediation task via a data center monitoring and management application, the remediation task being designed to address the issue within the data center; and, performing a data center remediation operation based upon the remediation task.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: monitoring data center assets within a data center; identifying an issue within the data center, the issue being associated with an operational situation associated with a particular component of the data center; notifying an administrator of the issue within the data center; tracking administrator reactions based upon the notifying; identifying a remediation task, the remediation task being designed to address the issue within the data center, the identifying being based upon at least some of the administrator reactions; and, prioritizing the remediation task based upon the administrator reactions to the notifying.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: identifying a plurality of asset resources within a data center; selecting a workload for allocation of asset resources; maintaining an inventory of available asset resources from the asset resources of the plurality of asset resources; determining which asset resources of the plurality of asset resources to allocate to the workload, determination of which asset resources of the plurality of asset resources to allocate taking into account the inventory of the available asset resources; and, performing a data center asset allocation operation, the data center asset allocation operation allocating resources the workload based upon the determining.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: monitoring data center assets within a data center; identifying an issue within the data center, the issue being associated with an operational situation associated with a particular component of the data center; determining whether remediation documentation is available for the issue within the data center; generating a remediation task, the remediation task being designed to address the issue within the data center, the generating using the remediation documentation when the remediation documentation is available; performing a data center remediation operation based upon the remediation task; and, generating remediation documentation associated with performance of the remediation task when the remediation documentation is not available.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: identifying a data center asset topology for a data center; creating a data center topology map; monitoring asset traffic within the data center, the monitoring providing data center asset traffic data; presenting the data center topology map within data center topology user interface; presenting an efficiency improvement suggestion associated with the asset traffic within the data center; and, changing the data center asset topology based upon the efficiency improvement suggestion.
