Server Room Monitoring
The Server Room Monitoring template is a ready-to-run accelerator for data-center and IT facility teams. It brings data centers, their server rooms and the sensors inside them into one dashboard: rack inlet temperature and humidity, IT load, cooling units, UPS, leak and door sensors, alarms and per-room thresholds.
💡 Solution Description
The Server Room Monitoring template is a ready-to-run accelerator for data-center and IT facility teams. It brings data centers, their server rooms and the sensors inside them into one dashboard: rack inlet temperature and humidity, IT load, cooling units, UPS, leak and door sensors, alarms and per-room thresholds.
✨ Highlights
Turn a set of rack and facility sensors into an observable data center with the Server Room Monitoring solution template. Designed for data-center operators, IT facility managers and colocation providers. 🖥️❄️
Press Install to get two data centers with five server rooms, 32 sensors, a week of demo history, calculated fields, alarm rules and a dashboard with a data-center tree.
📦 What’s inside the box?
- 🌳 Data-center tree: Every data center and its rooms in one sidebar — click to open a data center or a room.
- 📊 Data-center overview: Rooms, average and maximum inlet temperature, humidity and IT load, a rooms table with cooling, leak and door state, a sensor heartbeat grid, the inlet temperature chart and an alarm ranking.
- 🗺️ Room view: Room KPIs, a floor plan with every rack, cooling unit, UPS, leak and door sensor colored by its state, room alarms and the temperature and humidity chart.
- 🎚️ Per-room thresholds: Set temperature and humidity limits for each room in a dialog — the room’s alarms follow them.
- 🚨 Alarms: Every alarm of the data center with acknowledge and clear, alarms by severity and the daily maximum inlet temperature on a calendar.
🌟 Why use this template?
- 🌡️ ASHRAE-ready: Rooms start with ASHRAE A1 limits (18–27 °C, 20–80 %) and every room can have its own.
- 🧩 Rollups without code: Calculated fields roll racks up to rooms and rooms up to data centers — average and maximum inlet, humidity, IT load, cooling, leak and door state.
- 🔔 Critical events first: Leaks, stopped cooling units and UPS on battery raise critical alarms that propagate to the room and the data center.
🌍 Real-World Applications
- 🏢 Enterprise server rooms: Keep racks inside the recommended inlet envelope and catch cooling failures early.
- 🏬 Colocation and edge sites: Watch many small rooms across sites from one tree.
- 🏥 Critical facilities: Hospitals, banks and telecom sites where a leak or a UPS event must never be missed.
