Hi all, I have a situation like this: Our little server room is always on. It has an air
conditioning unit,
but barely enough. So sometimes during weekend, the temperature could reach unhealthy level, like 29 degree Celsius. Currently, there's no personnel to monitor it 24 hours a day. I'm thinking of using a tool to monitor the temperature, and then send sms/email when it reaches certain threshold. Anyone has an idea? Could be software based or hardware one. Thank you.
Hi, I'm successfully monitoring a lot of server rooms with serial thermometer like this: http://www.papouch.com/en/products.asp?dir=thermometers I had my own script to read and send alert. A few years ago
I swap to
Cacti where is easy to read serial thermometer too. Regards, David Hrbác
I thought about doing something like that

We use the WeatherGoose by IT Watchdogs and it has saved my butt two times now over 3 or 4 years. http://www.itwatchdogs.com/ We have added a couple extra external sensors (temp + airflow on the building AC, and multiple temp in various locations) to get better coverage.
