This application relates to apparatus and methods for the monitoring of nodes within datacenters. In some examples, a computing device, such as a node, receives a monitoring file from a monitoring server, where the monitoring file includes a plurality of node health checks. The computing device is configured to execute the monitoring file based on a type of the computing device. Further, and based on the execution of the monitoring file, the computing device is configured to determine that at least one of the plurality of node health checks failed. In response to determining that the at least one of the plurality of node health checks failed, the computing device is configured to generate an alert message identifying the node health checks that failed. Further, the computing device is configured to transmit the alert message to the monitoring server for display.

A system and method of automated downtime scheduling and control is disclosed. A failure of at least one component of at least one bare-metal server associated with a client is detected and a first notification is transmitted to a client system associated with the client. The notification includes a request to schedule downtime. A response including a selected downtime is received from the client system and the at least one bare-metal server is transitioned to an offline state at the selected downtime. A ticket is generated in a ticketing system for repair of the bare-metal server. The ticket identifies the at least one component.
