The Physical Plant offers temperature monitoring and emergency
notification through the campus energy management system in buildings
where building automation is already installed. Buildings without an
existing connection to the Campus EMS are still possible, but that
option is somewhat (or perhaps better EXTREMELY) cost prohibitive as
compared to some of the other notification options mentioned in this
thread. In the previously mentioned case at Vet Med, we are re-locating
an existing space temperature sensor to the new server room and adding
alarming as necessary.

I know that Phys. Plant offers a service like this, we are actually
getting one installed in our server room. Before this we just had the
Dell OpenManage suite fire off a warning when the server's internal temp
hit a certain threshold.

Does anyone use a temperature sensor of some kind to monitor their
server
room? We have a server room with a dedicated cooling unit, but no way to
monitor the temperature remotely.
I'd like to find some kind of device that could monitor temperature and
log
the readings, as well as contact me via phone or email if the
temperature
exceeds a certain level.
Is anyone using something like this now? Can you recommend anything?
Thanks,
Matt Farra
