thermal control - software utilities

[Juan Torres]

We want to know what utilities have we use to control the temperature of our HP Proliant ml570 and 340 servers (MS windows 2003 server).

We need a utilities that send alarm mails when the temperature be incorrect.

We have many problems with the data center temperature and we don`t want any server crash.

To control the temperature of your datacenter, i would have a look on the HP INSIGHT POWER MANAGER, which is a Proliant Essential an integrated in HPSIM

Whith this tool you could measure the temperatures on your servers an send an alert if there is an overheat at your data center.
