Hardware Monitoring Software

Monitor hardware health to ensure server and application uptime

Use a hardware monitor to prevent performance issues caused by hardware failure

Server performance is threatened by issues like fan failure, increased server temperature, and voltage peaks/drops—in fact, hardware failure causes many IT system outages. 

SolarWinds® Server Performance & Configuration Bundle (SPCB) server monitoring software is designed to help you monitor hardware health by providing instant visibility of the status (up, critical, or warning). With SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor (SAM) and SolarWinds Server Configuration Monitor (SCM), this bundle is designed to help you monitor CPU fan speed, server temperature, and power supply, with the added ability to set baselines and use these values as future points of reference to compare configurations.

Optimize resource utilization and prevent outages with a hardware monitor

Over-utilization of server resources often results in poor performance and downtime. Knowing about server resource capacity and utilization can help you identify root causes quicker. 

As part of SPCB, SolarWinds SAM is built to provide a detailed view of your server resources, including CPU load, memory used, and disk capacity. Clearly see all server resource consumption and use built-in capacity forecast charts and metrics to find out when your server resources will reach capacity. Then, using SolarWinds SCM, you can simplify configuration monitoring by tracking and alerting on system and application config changes with user-defined baselines or the last configuration.

Manage a heterogeneous IT infrastructure with ease from a single customizable screen

Using multiple server hardware vendors, operating systems and hypervisors can require multiple monitoring tools. This is expensive, cumbersome, and time-consuming. 

SPCB not only allows you to monitor performance but also compare configurations for hardware and software from the following vendors in one customizable dashboard: IBM System X, HP, Dell, Blade Chassis, Windows, Linux, AIX, Solaris, UNIX, HP-UX, VMware and Hyper-V. You can also track data center components, such as building environmental systems and APC for power supply health, using SPCB.

Diagnose server hardware downtime and performance issues

Monitoring server and application health parameters, including availability, processes, services, and response time, can help you troubleshoot performance problems faster. 

The products in the Server Performance & Configuration Bundle include 1200-plus application monitoring templates to monitor Exchange, Microsoft IIS, SQL Server, Linux, Active Directory, Apache, Windows, and more. You can also use the built-in AppStack dashboard to understand contextual dependencies between applications, underlying hardware, and virtual infrastructures.

Detect and track changes to hardware and software configurations to solve issues more quickly

The only constant in your server and application configurations is change. Without a change monitoring tool, it’s nearly impossible to even know these changes took place, much less what changed. 

With Server Performance & Configuration Bundle, you’ll be able to see if hardware or software has been added, removed, or updated to a different version. Additionally, you can see what changes were made and easily compare the new configuration to previous configurations in a single view.

"We find out in the afternoon that we have a bad fan—rather than at midnight—when someone can walk through. It gives the operations team time to work on more important items."
