Abstract
A computer program product and a computer system for monitoring an operation status of a disconnected device by a mobile device and an audio analysis system in an infrastructure. The mobile device has connectivity to the infrastructure while the disconnected device has no connectivity to the infrastructure. The mobile device receives from the user a selection of the disconnected device in a list of disconnected devices, determines a location of the mobile device, and determines whether the mobile device is in proximity to a predefined location of the disconnected device. The mobile device invokes passive listening to a sound generated by the disconnected device. The mobile device determines whether the sound can be detected. The mobile device steams audio with information of a location of the mobile device to the audio analysis system. The mobile device receives a notification of the operation status of the disconnected device.
