openQRM is an open source systems management platform which integrates with existing components in enterprise data centers to create scalable, highly available and customizable infrastructures.

openQRM is derived from a proven commercial product and distributed as an open source project through SourceForge, using a modified Mozilla Public License.

openQRM’s architecture extends to and embraces other existing data center technologies through “plug-ins.” The openQRM project team has created a number of plug-ins for broadly-used open source projects and proprietary solutions, and seeks to recruit community members to assist in additional plug-ins.

The project team aims to set the standard in data center management by continuing to provide a “premiere” enterprise-grade project for automating IT infrastructure, and by embracing other technologies through increasing our offering of plug-ins.

OpenQRM.org is the best destination for our project’s community to share ideas and innovations. Contributed by Qlusters, openQRM.org offers a range of support and information services to benefit all users of openQRM, including implementation advice, user forums and customer feedback.

This guide contains the procedures and background information needed to install, configure, and maintain the openQRM software and its components.
