Hardware Monitoring with HP TopTools
If you have HP TopTools, the Health tool in the HP TopTools for
Desktops agent interface provides the following tools for hardware
monitoring:
•
Status, for a general overview of your PC’s health, showing an
indicator light and a text message for each health feature
•
Disk reliability, for the health status of your IDE hard disk drives.
Non-IDE disks such as SCSI are not supported by this tool
•
Power-on self test information, for the details of power-on test
failures as well as recommendations for remedy
•
Alert Log, which allows you to view alerts generated by DMI-enabled
applications such as TopTools and McAfee VirusScan
®
.
HP TopTools also includes a Crash Monitor module that can be
downloaded and installed together with TopTools. This module helps
you to save your data if an application crashes. Since crashes are often
caused by low system resources, TopTools can send out alerts when
these resources are running low.
