Temperature monitoring with Email notification

Recommended Posts

Our server closet has seven servers, two CRT's and a host of network equipment and one weak air conditioner. We're working on replacing the A/C with something with a higher BTU output unit. The temperature is about 85° ~ 90°F in the room. One of our servers reports a CPU temp of 42°C right now, but it's a server that does virtually nothing at this point.

I'm looking for recommendations on what software folks have added to their systems that can send Email warnings of temperature increases and maybe even automatic shutdowns? I found one called Server Monitor Pro, but it requires SpeedFan to also be installed. Licensing two pieces of software would be a bit ugly, as well as not being sure right now if SpeedFan can run as a service and would run on our servers. (An assortment of Dell PowerEdge, HP and Compaq units. All of various ages.)

If there is software with features beyond this, then that's gravy. We're really looking for something focused on temperatures at the moment.
