The monitoring system of the data center computer room actually includes many aspects, not simple video monitoring. When there are some hidden dangers in the data center computer room, the danger can be eliminated in the cradle through the monitoring system in time. Theoretically, in the data center Anywhere in the central computer room, any operating system may have problems. Whether the monitoring system can fully cover it will determine the stability of the data center computer room to a certain extent. Any data center computer room has a monitoring system. The difference Only in the degree of perfection of the monitoring system, before a data center computer room is officially put into operation, it is necessary to complete a complete monitoring system for the operation of the data center computer room.
"Equipment Monitoring System" in the data center room
There are thousands of devices in the data center room. It is very necessary to monitor the operation of these devices, such as the CPU memory parameters of server operation, the port traffic of network devices, business-level monitoring, etc. The device-level monitoring is even more important. It is complicated and needs to be clear about the various operating parameters of the equipment. Therefore, the monitoring system of the general equipment is managed by the monitoring software provided by the equipment manufacturer or the standard third-party software.
(1) Through these monitoring software, various parameters of equipment operation are monitored 7*24 hours, and an alarm is issued once an abnormality is found.

( 2 ) There are many ways of alarming, which can be printed on the log host, sent to the mobile phone of the operation and maintenance personnel through SMS, or can be repaired by the software system.
( 3 ) Whether the monitoring software is perfect will determine whether an alarm can be given when a fault occurs. Therefore, the monitoring of equipment is often in the process of continuous improvement. Many monitoring parameters are based on experience, and even lessons from history. Only through continuous improvement and optimization can the risks that occur can be discovered in time. Of course, it is very difficult to predict and discover all faults in advance.
( 4 ) Sometimes failures may not have any symptoms, especially hardware failures, which will appear suddenly, and often the monitoring system cannot monitor the failures of hardware and components.
"Video Surveillance System" in Data Center Room
Like other commercial buildings, data center computer rooms also need to deploy video surveillance systems. Video surveillance mainly monitors the personnel entering and exiting the data center computer room. Cameras should be deployed at the entrance and exit of the data center computer room, and important computer room entrances should be deployed in the internal corridors of the data center computer room.
In the computer room of some very important businesses, cameras are sometimes deployed to prevent malicious operations or misoperations by some personnel. When these abnormalities are found, they are stopped in time to prevent the impact on the business of the data center computer room. Many equipment and instruments in the data center room are very expensive, and it is very common to damage them due to human reasons, and to prevent some thefts. For example, an optical module in a data center computer room, an optical module, especially a 40G/100G optical module, costs thousands of yuan each. If you take out a few, you can make a profit of tens of thousands of yuan.
With a video surveillance system, these behaviors can be avoided to the greatest extent, or they can be analyzed and held accountable after they appear. These video recordings are important evidence, so the video surveillance system is indispensable in the data center room. In some data center computer rooms, in addition to video surveillance, it is necessary to do a good job of registering personnel access in and out of the data center computer room, and manage external personnel to avoid introducing some malicious elements.
"Smoke temperature and humidity monitoring system" in the data center room
The data center computer room is also afraid of fire. Once a fire occurs, it will be a devastating blow to the data center computer room. There have been some painful lessons in the past, so the data center room should not be careless about setting fires. The data center room is different from other buildings. There are too many electronic devices inside, which is not suitable for the sprinkler system. Only dry powder or inert gas can be used to extinguish the fire.
当机房内的烟雾浓度超过了报警器设定的门限，即触发监控系统，及时将火灭除，除了烟雾，机房内的温度和湿度也是需要监控的重要部署。数据中心机房内部要尽量保持恒温恒湿，但实际上在数据中心机房内部会有局部的温度死角，长期以往会大大降低电子设备的使用寿命，通过在数据中心机房内多个区域部署温湿度传感器，建立起温湿度的监控网络，就可以及时地发现局部区域过温过湿的情况，在一些空气污染较为严重的地方，还可以部署空气清洁度监测的设备，数据中心机房设备运行在污染严重的环境里，容易造成静电、电容击穿器件等故障，为何我们要求数据中心机房设备要周期性地进行除尘就是这个道理，本身灰尘中就含有不少的污染物。
