Can anyone recommend a tool that would be good for tracking various
statistics of a server's performance? Currently I'm running a script that
runs a "vmstat 1 10" every 5 minutes, parses the results, averages the
results, and places them into a text file that I then import into Excel for
graphing. This is a cumbersome process and is only effective for gathering
statistics for the values tracked in vmstat. The statistics I pull out of
vmstat are waiting procs, memory usage, cpu usage, and the I/O stats. In
addition to these, I'd also like to be able to track swap usage, filesystem
size, and maybe number of users.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might offer...
John
