Hi Tex-

This solved the problem.  Thanks for the detailed steps!

Another question about the XSERVE G5 probe:  what are the thresholds for
this probe?  I can't find a reference to it in the manual or in the
Probes folder.

Thanks,
 Mark P.

Can you monitor the Xserve with Server Monitor?  If not, then there may 
be a configuration error on the Xserve.
You may need to install the Admin Tools that came with the Xserve.  If 
that still doesn't work, and Server Monitor says "Failed to contact 
server" in the log, then try adding the following line to 
/etc/watchdog.conf and restarting hwmond:

  hwmond:respawn:/usr/sbin/hwmond # Hardware Monitor daemon

The /usr/sbin/hwmond process is a daemon that monitors the hardware 
periodically (try 'man hwmond').  hwmond will currently only run on 
XServe hardware.  It has been suggested that this situation could arise 
when installing OS X Server from another (non-XServe) machine.  In this 
case, it may be that the pertinent line in /etc/watchdog.conf gets 
removed because the installer is not being run on an XServe.
