RCVE reportedly provides cost-effective high availability for entire server pools. As a result, organizations can enjoy large savings in hardware costs as well as greater system utilization without increasing downtime by offering this "N plus 1" option instead of shadowing every single productive server with a hot spare.

Through simplifying and automating lifecycle operations, RCVE can reduce the time for deploying or exchanging servers by up to 90 percent. Its intuitive, graphical-based management console dramatically simplifies day-to-day datacenter operations even in mixed physical and virtual server environments.

Available to order immediately, RCVE is a core component of the Dynamic Cube -- the new-generation PRIMERGY BX900 blade server system, also announced today (May 12). The PRIMERGY BX900 is a complete dynamic server infrastructure in a single blade cube, and is built on four guiding principles: designed to save customers' money by reducing energy bills, to reach new levels of performance, to deliver unmatched uptime, and to guarantee investment protection.
