Hard Drive Temperature™ can be configured remotely on client
computers. To do it, we recommend that you use the following keys
in the Windows registry.
ATTENTION! The Windows registry is crucial for the normal functioning
of the system that is why only experienced users should modify it!
To make it easier, we recommend that you use the
Hard Drive Temperature™ user interface to specify the necessary settings
on one computer and then just save the registry folder with those
settings to a file. Afterwards you will only have to import this
file on client computers, for example, using a logon script.
All the settings are stored in the following
registry folder:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\PalickSoft\Salamander
These keys are related to the Hard Drive Temperature
service:
MaxTemp
The maximum hard disk temperature. Once it is exceeded, either
a message window is displayed, or a message is sent via the network
or via e-mail depending on the settings. The message window is
displayed only if the user interface is launched (when there
is an icon with the disk temperature displayed in the tray).
HibernateTemp
Once this temperature is exceeded, the computer is hibernated.
The RAM contents are saved to the hard disk and the computer
is turned off to give the hard disk time to cool off.

is exceeded. If this value is set to False, the computer will
