Incoming power is individually monitored using 7 sensors, providing excellent visibility on your incoming power. Logging provides detailed insights on usage, performance and trending of each of the sensors. Thresholds can be set for the incoming RMS voltage to provide upper and lower alerts and configurable automations. |

Sensors, both standard and optional, provide rich data that is either numerical or state, depending on the sensor function. Sensors can be given meaningful names, descriptions, and their physical position. Data is available in a summary screen or in greater detail by simply clicking into the sensor itself. |

USAGE EXAMPLES: Please refer to the Sensors section for more detail and use cases of the range of sensors. |
|
Thresholds are a powerful tool in the Zella DC micro data centres, creating the basis for powerful and meaningful monitoring, alerting and automation. All numerical sensors can be assigned two lower and two upper thresholds, either globally or individually per sensor for even greater flexibility. |
|
DATA AVAILABLE: Numerical thresholds can be set for some or all of:

USAGE EXAMPLES:
|
|
An internal UPS is a necessity for maximising the up-time and protection of equipment. The benefit of a UPS is greatly enhanced when it is monitored, providing status data that can then be acted upon by the Zella DC micro data centre. A UPS can usually be interfaced using a clean contact card or SNMP network connection. |
|
DATA AVAILABLE:
* Data is dependant on the type of UPS and type of integration utilised. |
|
USAGE EXAMPLES:
|
Cooling is a critical component in the longevity of IT equipment and is one of the key foundational pillars of the Zella DC micro data centres. Whilst current draw of the A/C and internal temperature is monitored, further monitoring is possible through modbus integration of the cooling. This provides both greater insight and control. |

USAGE EXAMPLES:
|
Alerting via SMS is a useful feature that is a standard inclusion in every Zella DC micro data centre. Event rules can be easily added to email nominated recipients when an error has occurred, a threshold has been reached, access has been granted, and much more. Different groups of recipients can easily be defined, to suit the distribution requirements of different types of events. *requires an internet connection and outgoing (SMTP) mail server |
|
DATA AVAILABLE: Over 100 custom fields can be used to create a custom email message that includes key data relating to the event that prompted the message. Information can include:
|
|
USAGE EXAMPLES:
|
Servers that are reachable from the micro data centre and pingable, are able to be monitored. In the event of a sequence of failed pings, alerts and actions can be configured, such as rebooting the server and emailing alerts to IT staff for intervention. |

|
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a networking protocol that is commonly used for the management and monitoring of network-connected devices. Many larger organisations use SNMP to monitor their key IT devices and the Zella DC micro data centres can also be monitored using SNMP, ensuring the smooth integration into existing IT management platforms. |
