A fault tolerant method by which individual components of a server are monitored and controlled through independent, programmable microcontrollers interconnected through a microcontroller network. An external agent can control and monitor the microcontrollers by extending the interconnection network
A fault tolerant method by which individual components of a server are monitored and controlled through independent, programmable microcontrollers interconnected through a microcontroller network. An external agent can control and monitor the microcontrollers by extending the interconnection network beyond the physical server. Intervention of the server operating system software is not required and is not utilized for the access and control operations. The method includes the processes running on a remote interface so as to enable communication between the microcontroller network and an external modem that communicates with a remote client machine. The remote interface also provides for connection to a local client machine.

1. A method of external monitoring of the environmental conditions of a computer, the method comprising the acts of: monitoring at least one environmental condition of at least one component of a first computer; and communicating the results of monitoring to a second computer, without an operating system executing on the first computer. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the second computer is at the same location as the first computer. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the second computer is at a location remote to the first computer. 4. The method of claim 3, additionally comprising the act of providing an interface circuit between the first and second computers, and wherein the act of interface providing includes the act of connecting a pair of modems, wherein a first modem connects to the first computer and a second modem connects to the second computer. 5. The method of claim 4, further including the act of powering the interface circuit independently of the first computer. 6. The method of claim 3, wherein the act of communicating includes the act of transmitting the results of monitoring through a pair of modems. 7. The method of claim 1, further including the act of storing the results of monitoring in a memory. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the environmental conditions include at least one of the group consisting of: temperature, fan speed, processor error and I/O error. 9. The method of claim 1, additionally comprising displaying the communicated results of monitoring at the second computer. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the monitoring and communicating are performed regardless of whether the first computer is powered. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the second computer includes operating system software. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the second computer does not include operating system software. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the monitoring is performed without the operating system executing on the first computer. 14. A method of external management of the environmental conditions of a computer, the method comprising the acts of: monitoring at least one environmental condition of at least one component of a first computer; communicating, without an operating system executing on the first computer, the results of monitoring to a second computer; and updating an environmental setting of at least one selected component of the first computer in response to the results of monitoring communicated to the second computer. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the act of updating the environmental setting of the at least one selected component includes the act of sending a signal to the selected component of the first computer. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein the monitoring includes retrieving environmental settings data. 17. The method of claim 14, wherein the act of updating an environmental setting includes the act of changing the environmental setting of the at least one selected component of the first computer. 18. The method of claim 14, wherein the environmental setting being updated comprises a fan speed setting. 19. A method of external monitoring of the environmental conditions of a computer, the method comprising the acts of: monitoring at least one environmental condition of at least one component of a first computer; communicating the results of monitoring through a powered interface circuit and via a first modem; and communicating the results of monitoring received from the first modem via a second modem to a second computer, wherein the monitoring occurs without an operating system executing on the first computer.
