Check out nagios and/or cacti.  Cacti and Nagios uses snmp, I believe
and nagios is quite extensive and flexible IMO.  Not sure if it is
overkill for your needs or hard to setup but I used it for my 13+
home systems.  Quite nice and it lets me know immediately if a
system is down or if resources are being depleted. You can use
pagers and email notification and perhaps send a message to your
cell phone.
