All,
We had an issue with a DC where temps were elevated. The one bit of hardware that wasn't watched much was the one that sent out the initial alert. Looking for recommendations on hardware that I can mount/hang in each cabinet that is easy to set up and will alert us if temps go beyond a certain point.
TIA.

Most everything has temperature sensors from switches, servers and most modern PDUs. A dedicated solution is just creating the problem again in the future. Monitor the temps on everything and gain knowledge related to failure rates. Most companies with physical infrastructure could pay for another engineer to discover these unexpected expenses. Also note that modern air conditioning and refrigeration have SNMP or BACNET protocol support, just download the manual. -- - Andrew "lathama" Latham -
