ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that monitors a computer system using a plurality of physical sensors. The system operates by polling the plurality of physical sensors in a given sequence at a given rate, wherein each physical sensor monitors a specific physical parameter of the computer system. The system then provides a plurality of measurements from the plurality of physical sensors to a monitoring system. If a given physical sensor detects a parameter that is not within a pre-determined operating range, the system receives an interrupt from the given physical sensor. In response to receiving this interrupt, the system raises an alarm.
