I am translating an IT communication manual and I just cannot seem to find an appropriate term for the word between ** .."The server is able to **keep track** on the changes in the Central Directory and transfers the data on a scheduled basis to the client""..is it OK to say "Il server ha la capacità di **tener conto**?
thanks

vedi:
Spesso basta riflettere prima di tradurre e chiedersi: cosa significa questo? Come si dice in italiano? Altre volte occorre una certa competenza tecnica.
Per esempio, spesso to keep track viene tradotto con tenere traccia. Invece, se la frase è to keep track of the developments, ovviamente si scriverà seguire gli sviluppi. Se la frase è to keep track of the temperature, si scriverà controllare l’andamento della temperatura.

in questo caso il server SEGUE L\'ANDAMENTO, dopo di che trasferisce i dati bla bla...

agree  Roberta Anderson: [for Michael: I don't think it was intended personally; the whole text from "Spesso basta riflettere" comes from the interview with Roberto Crivello, in the link provided by verbis; for verbis: thanks for the link, great read!]

Explanation:
You could also use "monitorare".
there may m be a mistake in the text...perhaps it should read "keep trak of".... which would make more sense
