That's true and in an ideal world I agree, but often you will find
that the tool provided specifically by the manufacturer to monitor the
hardware which they designed will give you more detail than the open
more general-purpose one.  That's not alway the case though of course,
sometimes the manufacturer's tools are a pile of junk!

Me, I use whatever will get the job done.  I inherited some servers
which already had OpenManage installed so I used it.

Cheers,

Jim
