Curious timing as just last night I created some .CMD files and PowerShell scripts for Dell Server Administrator to email alerts when internal temperature probes hit specific thresholds (as well as failed disk in a RAID array and other alerts). I imagine HP’s and IBM have a similar free tool that can be leveraged for that as well.
Another option would be to configure temperature alerts to write to a Windows event log and have a scheduled task that is triggered by an event log entry. In that case if you found a utility that simply could write to the event log based on temperature events you could trigger/alert off of that. (Scheduled tasks…task trigger = “when a specific event is logged”…choose event ID then run application …etc) Do you want to track the temperatures, or alert on them, or both?

Does anyone know of a tool that can do this? Preferably it would be something cloud based and reasonably priced. Asking for too much? :-) I'm open to ideas, including ones that monitor all kinds of hardware related stuff.
