Abstract
A method of monitoring a status of one or more computing devices in a computing system environment includes deploying a sensor network including a plurality of sensors to monitor multiple operating parameters of one or more computing devices of said computing system environment, each sensor being associated with one of said one or more computing devices. A base station computing device collects operating parameter data for the computing devices and analyzes the operating parameter data to (a) predict a failure of said one or more computing devices and/or (b) identify a fault condition of said one or more computing devices. Computing device operating parameters monitored include one or more of an operating temperature, a vibration, a cooling air flow rate, and a battery charge level. Monitoring systems for use in the method are disclosed.
