The Supermicro SuperDoctor 5 is a hardware monitoring program that functions in a
command-line or web-based interface in Windows and Linux operating systems. The program
monitors system health information such as CPU temperature, system voltages, system power
consumption, and fan speed, and provides alerts via email or Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP).
SuperDoctor 5 comes in local and remote management versions and can be used with
Nagios to maximize your system monitoring needs. With SuperDoctor 5 Management Server
(SSM Server), you can remotely control power on/off and reset chassis intrusion for multiple
systems with SuperDoctor 5 or IPMI. SD5 Management Server monitors HTTP, FTP, and
SMTP services to optimize the efficiency of your operation.
