I think it would be good to have some kind of standard way to access this kind of devices. This should also include watchdogs.
If they use the same input/ouput via proc it is much easier to use this information with mon and/or linux-ha.
Something which simple to parse like:
/proc/monitor/lm78: Sensor-1-Temp 50 C Sensor-1-Fan 4000 RPM core 2.8 V cpu 3.5 V

btw: does anybody know what kind of monitor/watchdog the Dell PowerEdge Servers (epspecially the low end ones 2200/2300) use ? -- Christof Damian Technical Director http://www.mediaconsult.com/ ( btw: mediaconsult is hiring )
