You would expect that to be true, but I never assume that it is.

lm_sensors-sensord is the package name. Try man sensord is you have
the package installed. The defaults are to check for alarms on 1
minute intervals and log the reading every 1/2 hour. But the
defaults are changeable - you could log every x seconds if you
wanted to. -l option for alarm checks and -L for logging. You can
use seconds (s), minutes (m), or hours (h).

The Fedora RPM installs a sensord daemon, and /etc/sysconfig/sensord
is the config file for it.
