Redhat linux server resource monitoring
 

Hi,

I am from an IBM aix background.
Recently I have started managing Linux on intel hardware.

I am looking for a tool to monitor and trend the resource (CPU, memory, paging & network) utilization. I use nmon on IBM hardware. I can also download nmon executable compiled for intel and red hat Linux.

Curious to know if there is any other tool similar to nmon that majority of the Linux community uses.

Thanks,

mrtg is common
nagios is common to monitor thresholds (not graphing though)

Dear gnanasheskar


we can monitor using top , free commands

learn about this commands using man

I don't know that there is any tool that the majority of the Linux
community uses. I've used Zabbix before, it seems to work well.

Hi,

you can use ganglia to monitor utilization of CPU , memory and network graphically there is many more you can monitor

Dear Gnaneshekar:

You can use vmstat, tihs is a tool for activity monitoring, for example
you can view the mem, CPU utilization, pagging, and more, and is a good
idea get the output and then use gnuplot for parsing it and then graph this.

regards.

Hi,
You can try MUNIN for resource monitoring, it generates good graphs also on daily,weekly,monthly and yearly basis.
You can also configure and customize it according to your needs.its very easy to install and handle. plus you can monitor other OS also...

Redhat linux server resource monitoring
 

Hello Ganashekar

Like you said nmon is a good on system tool. Another good one is sar "think its short for system activity report". (on my fedora box sar2.x86_64 2.3.0-2.fc15)
I like to use ksar http://sourceforge.net/projects/ksar/ (java app) that reads all the sar data.
Like others off system monitor tools nagios and cacti are my go to tools.

What tools did you / do you use on AIX ? Its always good to know what others do .

on aix; I pretty much use native tools (vmstat, iostat & topas) for server
resource monitoring.
I have scheduled a cron job to have nmon capture server resource
utilization at 5 minute intervals. This data can be used with
nmon-analyzer to generate graphs. On days where performance issues are
reported; nmon graphs is a good thing to share with the team for cpu,
memory, paging and network.

Most of my IBM hardware runs virtual machines. While nmon is mostly used
to get the server resource utilization for any given day; ganglia is good
tool that gives graphs over a week, month and year. Also ganglia is good
for virtualized/clustered environments as there are graphs that stack up
the resource utilization of all the virtual machines/nodes. This helps us
to quickly determine if there is capacity to host more virtual machines or
not. For a clustered environment it helps to determine if the load is
evenly distributed and if all the available resources of a cluster are
maxed out or not.
