Managers,
Our upper management would like some kind of historical tracking of how
"busy" our Alpha servers are. I believe a very simple metric, as simple as
load average found on "uptime" will suffice. And getting load over time.
But is there a system, method, or software where I can get this kind of
data, and probably put into excel spreadsheets?
I've dabbled with performance monitor, but it seems a bit more complicated
than I would need. I don't need memory usage or hd usage, just knowing if
a computer was generally idle or busy over the days.
I'm sure this has been requested of other sysadmins out there, what have
you done to fulfil this request?
