Storage Resource Manager (SRM) from Dell was built to manage the complexity of growing, heavily virtualized storage environments. With SRM, users obtain detailed relationship and topology views from the application, to the virtual or physical host, down to the LUN to identify service dependencies. Users can also view performance trends across the data path and identify hosts competing for resources. SRM helps to understand and manage the impact that storage has on applications. With this…

Smart-UPS is a data center power option from Schneider Electric, formerly from APC.
It is best suited if you are looking for a centralized analytics for storage and streamlining your staffs task time. It helps visualize the aspects of storage usage which inturn helps in understanding stretches and reduce overall usage statistics. The price point seems little overwhelming to startups. It is complex in operating and needs tech help.

This is a very good solution for your UPS and battery needs for a data center electrical solution. The interface is user-friendly and alerts can be understood clearly. The alarms for service and maintenance keep you on the schedule and avoid any downtimes or performance degradations. I am especially impressed with the servicing from APC, we had a battery bank renewal activity recently and it was done very professionally, like clockwork.

Notifications are fantastic. In the event of a power outage the email notifications are quick and easy to set up.
The web based GUI is pretty intuitive and easy to use.
The ability to combine these devices with other Schneider (formerly APC) devices is great. We use a number of older Netbotz systems. This makes it very easy to pull reports to give an overall picture. For example: The power went out at 7:00PM. This caused the UPS to kick on. During that time the air conditioning turned off and the server room temperature went up 10 degrees. You can then take this data to those responsible for HVAC and determine best course of action. This is hypothetical of course but you can see the benefit.

I have never had to actually call for support on these devices. The engineer that came to do the initial install was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. She was obviously an expert in the field. At one point we decided to replace all the batteries to ensure battery runtime. That was incredibly easy and did not need to call

The Dell EMC Storage Resource Manager, compared to the Microsoft System Center, is more fast time-to-value with out-of-the-box monitoring, provisioning, configuration, automation, protection, and self-service. The Dell EMC Storage Resource Manager is also excellent at managing OBBs.

We have only used APC/Schneider devices in the past simply because they are the most proven devices of this kind on the market. Like I said previously you cannot trust any unproven device in this kind of emergency scenario. I am not interested in exploring second-tier battery backups.
