Monitoring tool

The equipment that is used to keep the computer systems at PDC running can fail sometimes and hence needs to be monitored continuously. Therefore we have all the PDC infrastructure equipment connected to a monitoring system. This system collects any alarms from the individual units, and also measures the temperatures, pressures and so forth at many points in the infrastructure to check that the values are within the normal range.

The monitoring system includes the web tool above which indicates alarms or measurements outside the acceptable range in red. If there is an alarm, the tool can also send an email to alert PDC staff to the problem.
