Noob. How Can I monitor Remote Devices?

I think I'm running the risk of being yelled "RTFM you bludger" at, but ...
I have a client with a number of servers in different locations. I want to monitor those servers for things such as predictive disk failure, out of space, overheating etc. I don't want to monitor PCs, routers etc etc, just the servers.
I want to impress the client as they are growing and at the moment, don't want to pay me to setup any monitoring, but I want some monitoring to head off any disasters before they strike, I see that as a win/win.
So is there a quick and easy guide I can follow to get monitoring of remote devices setup and so on?
Thanks and sorry if it's in the manual.

My 10 yr old wants to text from his iPod touch. We have 1 family Apple ID. How can I monitor his texts without receiving all of his friends messages? Do I need a separate Apple ID or can I link a new email address to the same Apple ID?

Was told a USB device would create a PDF automatically from the data contained within when plugged into my USB port. Doesn't seem to work. How does this work and how can I fix the device I received?

Acrobat is not on the USB device - only Adobe Reader needed on the PC. How does this work? How can I fix this device if at all?

You need to ask the people who sold it to you. Doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Reader.
However, you should be wary of devices that automatically try to open files when plugged in. They can also infect your computers with all kinds of viruses or malware.

How can I have 2 devices on one iTunes?

How can i have 2 devices on one iTunes so that they share the same music but have different apps? Is there a way to do that?

Each can sync with the same playlists, or different ones, and can have different apps...
Uncheck the Automatically sync new apps box on the Apps tab after connecting each device and before syncing. Once this box has been unchecked each device should remember the setting and only sync the apps that have already been selected for it, plus any you then decide to manually add to the list or purchase on each respective device.

If you enabled Find my iPhone then you should use that. If not, I'm afraid you're out of luck for finding it.
To manage your devices, go to Your Account in iTunes.

How can I remove a device from my iCloud/Apple ID?

Hi,
I merged my dad's iphone to my Apple ID a while back because he wants to buy an app and I have some credit left over so I let him used my ID on his device. Apparently, all my contacts, pictures from photo stream, and ical are now also in his device. And all his contacts, pictures, and ical are on mines. How can I remove his device from my icloud and Apple ID WITHOUT deleting anything? Like I just don't want him to get anymore of my reminders and contacts, and pictures? Because I'm afraid taht if I remove his iphone on my icloud, all the pictures/contacts/ical that he took and went to my device too will be deleted because those are some important pictures/contacts/ical?
I tried to manually delete some of my dad's contacts that was shared on my phone, it turns out that it got deleted on his phone as well and vice versa. How can I just completely cut him off of my icloud and ID without losing any of my and his contacts/pics/etc?

If you didn't set up Find My iPhone in the iCloud settings, then you can't. Notify the police and change the password to your Apple ID and any other online services you used from that iPhone, just as a precaution.

How can I tell the device is connected to itunes 12?

how can I tell the device is connected to itunes 12? I have Windows 8. I hear that the device is connected, but don't see the device to manage. Only thing that happens is on the phone it says Trust the computer.. I say Trust and nothing happens.

in ituens at the top where you see the small icons for Music, Movies, TV etc when your device is connected you will see a small icon representing your phone or ipad etc popup click that and it will show you the usual interface for backup and syncing.
if that doesnt happen, like it didint for me initially, you should close itunes fully via task manager if you know how to do this and start it again with the device unplugged then plug it in after itunes has finished loading.
Worst case scenario you nee to resatrt
