Looks interesting, as a SAAS solution. Any idea how much? They want me to fill out a form for a price guide. Im sure theres lots of different things, just trying to get a general idea. I see the new Servers Alive has a 'remote agent' feature. Looks promising too, an 800k service taking 2mb ram to

Off the top of my head I cant remember, We have 15 different customers running approx 22 servers being monitored with hounddog. The costs vary depending if you want 5 or 15 minute checks, how many servers, client confidence notes etc. We have some customers getting notes. Basically we get the

I believe your are correct I need to check that on mine when I bring it back online. If it does it is most likely had them disabled as all my servers have them set to shutdown if the temp gets beyond a certain set value. Jon On Fri, May 1, 2009 at 5:30 PM, Sam Cayze sam.ca...@rollouts.com

Hey before you blame Microsoft on this one it is listed as an optional update and has been for at least 2 months. Last time I looked which was earlier this week it was still listed as optional and NOT set to install. You had to manually select to install it. Jon On Fri, May 1, 2009 at 6:39 PM,

I have a client that just purchased several 3u and 4u servers to go in a couple of cages. The guy asked me for some lights and action to put in to show investors and such. I was looking for maybe some rack mount environmental device monitor or something. Nothing too expensive its mostly just

I was going to suggest that you go to either Autozone, or some other auto shop, that specializes in tricking out either a car or truck. Find some blue or purple flouresent lights, the ones that you put under a car to make appear as if it were floating, hook that up to a 12vdc output and string

Haha I like the car/ghetto ride idea actually. Maybe I can wire something that connects to the led light of the dells and push out some ‘activity’. I will have to keep digging it sounds like. I mean it would be nice if the items had an actual function. Right now I dropped on the firewall
