A monitoring system can receive sensor measurements from a select sensor of a group of sensors. The sensor measurements are compared to group alert condition or an individual alert condition. Based on the comparison, an alert state can be identified and a user notified of the alert state. The system
A monitoring system can receive sensor measurements from a select sensor of a group of sensors. The sensor measurements are compared to group alert condition or an individual alert condition. Based on the comparison, an alert state can be identified and a user notified of the alert state. The system can automatically determine the individual alert condition, which can be uniquely associated with the select sensor and can be associated with a domain of time.

A method for controlling temperature associated with rack-based equipment, the method comprising: receiving at a monitoring device via a reader a sensor temperature measurement from a select sensor of a group of sensors, each sensor of the group of sensors uniquely incorporated in a tag associate
1. A method for controlling temperature associated with rack-based equipment, the method comprising: receiving at a monitoring device via a reader a sensor temperature measurement from a select sensor of a group of sensors, each sensor of the group of sensors uniquely incorporated in a tag associated with rack-based computer equipment, the tag wirelessly communicating the sensor temperature measurement to the reader;comparing the sensor temperature measurement to a group threshold associated with the group of sensors;for each sensor of the group of sensors and for each domain of time of a plurality of domains of time with a repeating period, comparing the sensor temperature measurement to individual thresholds uniquely associated with the select sensor of the group of sensors, a first domain of time of the plurality of domains of time being a duration of consistency in which backups are performed, a second domain of time of the plurality of domains of time being a duration of consistency in which web traffic increases, the individual thresholds based on a moving average plus or minus a multiple of a variance quantity determined from sensor temperature measurements associate with the select sensor measured during a domain of time of the plurality of domains of time, the individual thresholds having a range bounded by the group threshold; andactivating a notification when the sensor temperature measurement transgresses an individual threshold of the individual thresholds during the domain of time; andactivating an alarm condition when the sensor temperature measurement transgresses the group threshold. 2. The method of claim 1, whereby activating occurs more accurately than when only comparing to a group threshold. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein activating the notification is in response to comparing the sensor temperature measurement to the individual thresholds, the comparing to the group threshold not indicating an alarm condition. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the domain of time includes a duration within the repeating period. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the period is a day and the domain of time is a duration intraday. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the domain of time is a duration during which system behavior is expected to be consistent. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving at the monitoring device a humidity measurement, a fan speed, a fan usage, a power consumption, a processor usage, network traffic, or a combination thereof associated with the rack-based equipment. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein activating the notification includes sending a communication to a user interface device. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the communication is a text message, an email, a tweet, a phone call, a push notification, or a combination thereof. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the individual thresholds associated with the domain of time are different than second individual thresholds associated with a second domain of time different from the domain of time. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the range associated with the individual thresholds is not greater than 50% of a range associated with the group threshold. 12. A method of controlling temperature associated with rack-based equipment, the method comprising: receiving, at a monitoring device via a reader, sensor temperature measurements from a group of sensors during a set of domains of time within a set of periods, each domain of time of the set of domains of time repeating in each period of the set of periods, a first domain of time of the plurality of domains of time being a duration of consistency in which backups are performed, a second domain of time of the plurality of domains of time being a duration of consistency in which web traffic increases, each sensor of the group of sensors uniquely incorporated in a tag associated with rack-based computer equipment, the tag wirelessly communicating the sensor temperature measurement to the reader;establishing a group threshold associated with each of the sensors within the group of sensors;for each sensor of the group of sensors and for each domain of time of the set of domains of time, automatically establishing and updating individual thresholds uniquely associated with a select sensor of the group of sensors, the individual thresholds based on a moving average value plus or minus a multiple of a variance quantity determined from sensor temperature measurements associated with the select sensor measured during the domain of time within the set of periods;comparing a subsequent sensor measurement received at the monitoring device via the reader from the tag and associated with the select sensor to the group threshold and the individual thresholds; andactivating a notification when the subsequent sensor temperature measurement transgresses an individual threshold of the individual thresholds during the each domain of time; andactivating an alarm condition when the sensor temperature measurement transgresses the group threshold. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein activating the notification is in response to comparing the sensor temperature measurement to the individual thresholds, the comparing to the group threshold not indicating an alarm condition. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the period is a day and the domain of time is a duration intraday. 15. The method of claim 12, wherein the domain of time is a duration during which system behavior is expected to be consistent. 16. The method of claim 12, further comprising receiving at the monitoring device a humidity measurement, a fan speed, a fan usage, a power consumption, a processor usage, network traffic, or a combination thereof associated with the rack-based equipment. 17. The method of claim 12, wherein activating the notification includes sending a communication to a user interface device. 18. The method of claim 12, wherein the individual thresholds associated with the domain of time are different than second individual thresholds associated with a second domain of time different from the domain of time. 19. A method of controlling temperature associated with rack-based equipment, the method comprising: receiving, at a monitoring device via a reader, sensor temperature measurements from sensors within a group of sensors during a set of periods, each sensor of the group of sensors uniquely incorporated in a tag associated with rack-based computer equipment, the tag wirelessly communicating the sensor temperature measurement to the reader;establishing a set of domains of time occurring within each period of the set of periods;for each sensor of the group of sensors and for each domain of time of the set of domains of time, automatically establishing and updating individual thresholds uniquely associated with the each sensor of the group of sensors, a first domain of time of the plurality of domains of time being a duration of consistency in which backups are performed, a second domain of time of the plurality of domains of time being a duration of consistency in which web traffic increases, the individual thresholds based on a moving average plus or minus a multiple of a variance quantity and plus or minus a constant determined from sensor temperature measurements associated with the each sensor during the each domain of time of the set of domains of time within the set of periods;comparing a subsequent sensor temperature measurement associated with the each domain and uniquely associated with a select sensor of the group of sensors to the uniquely associated individual thresholds; andactivating an alert when the subsequent sensor temperature measurement transgresses an individual threshold of the individual thresholds during the each domain of time.
