Open Country Launches OCM 3.1 Systems Management Suite

Open Country introduces OCM 3.1, the newest version of the OCM systems management suite that encourages the use of repeatable best practices in managing Linux systems.

OCM is Open Country's flagship product with capabilities that provide organizations with a simple solution, enabling administrators to effectively provision, manage, monitor, and maintain Linux-based servers, desktops, blades and appliances.

Increasingly, organizations are also concerned with compliance. OCM tracks each operation with its extensive logging capability so system administrators can know by whom, what, and when a system was modified. OCM keeps hardware and software assets tracked and accounted for with its centralized database. OCM has an extensive reporting capability, with several standard report templates that can be customized to meet compliance requirements (SOX and others) and deliver information on corporate hardware and software assets.

The languages OCM 3.1 supports are English, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Portuguese and Spanish. Additional features include an advanced search capability that allows for systems to be searched based on installed software and an extensive reporting capability with 12 standard report templates that can be customized to meet compliance requirements. Repetitive, time-consuming tasks, such as provisioning and deploying updates, are fully automated, and a unique web-based architecture makes OCM equally suitable for managing thousands of systems across an enterprise or managing five servers onsite.
