<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">A number of servers (HP, IBM, Dell) have temperature monitors which may use SNMP, or may have management software you could install on the windows OS.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Switches, air conditioners, etc often have temperature sensors.
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">The sensor may be monitoring internal temp but if that is the only option, you could just change the thresholds, so if the ambient temp is say 20 (celsius) and internal is 33, you could trigger alerts on the internal
temp over 40.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>

<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><span>Another option is a USB thermometer - haven't used it myself but may work.</span><br>
