To keep up with growing complexities of data center maintenance, IBM on Thursday announced a new set of self-management tools that can reduce the cost and manpower needed to run data centers.

The tools represent the next phase in the development of IBM's Autonomic Computing effort, an umbrella of tools used in IBM's hardware, software and services to reduce human intervention by monitoring and managing systems autonomically. The package was first introduced in 2001.

New tools include the IBM Systems Director Active Energy Manager, an energy management package that monitors power consumption, and makes adjustments to improve energy efficiency and reduce power consumption costs, said Ric Telford, vice president for autonomic computing at IBM.
