Onset Computer has announced a temperature and humidity monitoring system for server rooms and data centers. The HOBO LCD Temp/RH Logger is a low-cost system that records and displays temperature and humidity and can activate an auto-dialer that alerts IT staff to problems.

The wall-mounted, battery-powered system costs $189; the auto-dialer costs an extra $169.

UltraBac Software this week plans to introduce back-up and disaster-recovery software that supports differential image backups, bar codes, and 64-bit Intel and Advanced Micro Devices processors. Systems administrators with tape autoloaders or tape libraries will use bar codes to identify tapes to a media pool.

UltraBac 8 is designed to coordinate the tapes with the back-up schedule and index them for quick access and recovery. Differential image backup allows only modified sectors of a disk to be copied, saving space and time.

The Windows server-based offering starts at $495 per server.
