Service Automation Visualizer

HPE Server Automation Visualizer (SAV) allows you to manage the operational architecture and behavior of distributed business applications in your IT environment by displaying detailed application information in physical and logical drawings.

SAV enables you to scan selected servers or devices in your data center so you can visualize all aspects of your business applications and how it interacts with other components on your network. SAV gives you the ability to create signature-based definitions of your Business Applications, and models them in Tiers. This provides a detailed and comprehensive picture of how all a business application’s components interact.

SAV’s detailed picture of your business application includes all related physical and virtual servers, network devices, and physical and logical connections between any of them. When you better understand a business application’s processes and interrelationships, you can understand how the business applications are distributed and you are likely to be more effective in troubleshooting errors when they occur.

SAV enables you to take snapshots of a business application (on a one time or recurring basis) and compare the results, so you can view and compare differences in your business application at a specific point in time. You can compare two snapshot results to see changes that have occurred and remediate any differences in the results.

You can also view compliance information in SAV, so you can monitor server and device compliance levels and troubleshoot those that are out of compliance.

SAV is tightly integrated with features in HPE Server Automation(SA), as well as the Network Automation (NA). The kinds of data you can visualize and tasks you can perform in SAV, however, depends upon the SA products you are licensed to run or have configured to work with SA and SAV.

SAV and SA Clients

The Service Automation Visualizer (SAV) Client is a separately licensed product that requires SA in order to run.

In order to visualize networking information with Network Automation (NA) inside of SAV, you must have both a licensed version of NA integrated with your SA core, plus an additional license to run SAV showing NA data.

If you have not purchased SAV, NA, but would like to, contact your sales representative.
