About the White Paper: Traditional methodologies for monitoring the data center environment are
no longer sufficient. With technologies such as blade servers driving up
cooling demands and regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley driving up data
security requirements, the physical environment in the data center must
be watched more closely.
While well-understood protocols exist for monitoring physical devices
such as UPS systems, computer room air conditioners (CRAC) and fire
suppression systems, there is a class of distributed monitoring points
that is often ignored.
This paper describes this class of threats, suggests approaches to
deploying monitoring devices, and provides best practices in leveraging
the collected data to reduce downtime.
