Re: Suggestion for Server Room monitoring

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Well, there are ALOT of options..

You got 1-wire for temperature.. thenyou use http://www.klein.com/thermd/ for the software, get a usb or serial interface device for the sensors, then a couple sensors..http://www.hobby-boards.com/catalog/main_page.php   has a good selection..  You can put a good system together for under a 100 i would imagine.

Then you've got the ready made systems:

http://embeddeddatasystems.com/page/EDS/PROD/HA/HA7Net with http://forums.cacti.net/about13526.html


The route I am taking is the 1-wire one, so I dont have alot of information ont he others.. the Ha7 product is just a ethernet device for the 1-wire interface.  It communicates to the Cacti install of the monitoring server.

I was just getting ready to post this! They have great products. The
sensors available are widespread... heat, cold, noise, motion, water,
electric.... You program it to call a list of numbers... until one of
those folks calls it back, it keeps trying. You can listen to the room
from the phone. Really neat system and not a huge amount of money.
Basically, it is a burglar system as well... can detect intrusions.
