    Hi List,

    The story is, on one Sunday, our both ACs in the data center died. The data
    center temperature got to 138F until someone discovered.
    I am looking for a temperature control device that will execute the
    following conditions when the room get to 85F.
    - Send Email message.
    - Page the Engineer.
    - Shut off the main UPS power that feeds all the servers. That's fine. I
    rather cold power shutdown the servers instead to let them melt.

    Does any one have any recommendations or references. Thanks.

    Ben
