We use HPE OneView to manage our Synergy frames. We have multiple OneView environments, and we manage a lot of Synergy 12,000 series frames with Synergy 480 Gen10 blades on those frames. We primarily use the blades for VMware ESXi hosts.

I use HPE OneView in servers or storage for unified monitoring purposes. It allows me to manage the Synergy frame and multiple frames, including blade servers, in a single console. This setup is beneficial for clients who require a single control for monitoring purposes.

We're using a mix of two versions. We have version 7 and version 6.60.
The solution is deployed on-premises.
There are currently six people using this solution in my organization. We currently don't have plans to increase usage.

We use the solution to manage the server. Also, we have a server profile. Storage pools are there with logical enclosures. Enclosures are there, volumes are there, switches are there, firewall compliance is there, networking, et cetera. Everything is there. We have a general overview of everything we need in one place.
View full review »The solution has a lot of use cases. The solution is used for implementation and configuration for all devices, creating all structure, and infrastructure configurations, like logical, interconnected groups, enclosure groups, and also, the device connection. The solution is also used for production troubleshooting or change, certificate, and authentication, If you set the infra, you install everything in one shot. You just need to implement devices like Blade or compute notes in Synergy.
We deploy this system so our customers can deploy it to the cloud. I'm involved in research, deployment and operating systems.

Our company served as a testing facility for the solution where thousands of technicians working on different projects, products, and partnerships.
We used the solution to manage platforms, standalone servers, and enclosure frames. We did not directly install the solution, but rather developed plugins for integration with the VMware virtualization platform.
For one use case, we integrated the solution with the Synergy frame to manage platforms contained in single or clustered enclosures.
For another use case, we deployed the solution as an appliance for a virtualization platform, added the enclosures or servers, and called them up via iLO or other management software.

We are a solution provider and HPE OneView is one of the products that we implement for our clients. When we first started using OneView, we used it for monitoring our server. After that, I added my blade server and then two years ago, Synergy. Since then, I have been managing my HPE BladeSystem and Synergy with OneView.
It is also used for configuring my Virtual Connect, the operating system for my server, and so on.

I've been working with OneView off-and-on for about five and a half years, first on the operations side, mostly managing hardware and maintaining it. More recently, I've been spending more time on the engineering side, making sure that we're building stuff, seeing what we can do as far as automating, and getting all of our profiles more generalized so that there are fewer questions about what a particular piece of hardware has.

- IT infrastructure monitoring

- Decreases the amount of incidents.
I have 200-plus services in around 40 different locations, therefore I need to be assured that I know when things break down, a disk goes bad, etc. So, I can see it, use the global dashboard, and give that view to our operations guys so they can see if something goes wrong. The work is 24/7, however I do not work those hour, so my team can see it and that is basically what I am using it for. I used to use other products, an old HPE SIEM that was not so good. This one is definitely better.

View full review »Twice a year we do a server buy. We get in maybe 20 blade chassis. So, we would have a significant amount of servers to actually provision. We use OneView to change all the buyer settings, and it stops us having to go into each server and do it manually, which normally takes about ten minutes per server. However, we can just use OneView, do it all together, and have the whole thing setup and ready to be provisioned by the OS.
That is what we use it for, and it is performing really well.

I use HPE OneView for management, performance-related issues, network issues, capacity, costing, and upgrading the firmware for different servers.
