Mitch donated some small ones last year (based on what little<br>information I've gathered), but not sure where they went...APC ones, from<br>my limited reading and small amount of experience with the topic, appear to<br>be quite good and there's some reasonably priced models going around (from<br>Harris Technology no less, I'm sure they are even cheaper elsewhere also)<br><br>The cost would of course, be based on how many we wanted to load it up<br>with.<br><br>On another note, I've not got access to all the stuff on mission control,<br>so this is just a guess, but it looks like we're monitoring the temperature<br>of individual servers, but are we doing any general environmental<br>monitoring and also access monitoring on the machine room?</span></span></font><div><br></div><div>- Matt [MRD]</div></body></html>
