6.4.3 Active Energy Manager tasks
After the AEM is launched, it displays the AEM console in the IBM Director
Console. Its functions enable you to monitor and collect power-consumption data
from power devices, create trend data, export data and manage energy on
certain hardware, for example by using capping features.
A new Active Energy Manager task icon is added in the IBM Director
Management console after installation of the AEM extension (see Figure 6-25).
