| PackageDescription | SysUsage continuously monitor your systems information and generate
periodic graphical reports using rrdtool or JavaScript jqplot library.
All reports are shown through a web interface.
SysUsage grabs all system activities using Sar and system commands allowing
you to keep tracks of your computer or server activity during its life.
It is a great help for performance analysis and resources management. The
threshold notification can alarm you when the system capabilities are
reached by sending SMTP messages or through Nagios reports.
By default it will monitor all you need to know on your server activity, it
is written in Perl and should works on all Unix like platforms. It doesn't
require a Database system like MySQL or PostgreSQL but relies on rrdtool. In
addition you can embedded your own plugins written in any programming language.
Since release 5.0 SysUsage can be run from a centralized place where
collected statistics will be stored and where graphics will be rendered.
Unlike other monitoring tools with lot of administration work, SysUsage is
design to have the least possible things to configure and a high level of admin
system knowledge. Each server can also be self monitored and you just have to
connect your browser to the web interface to know its health level.
SysUsage is design with simplicity in mind. providing all relevant statistics
from the servers within an intuitive web interface and without spending too
much time to configure it, if you know Nagios, you know what I mean. You will
especially like SysUsage for that. |
