The symon project consists of three parts; a data monitor, a data consolidator
|
|
and a data displayer.
|
|
|
|
symon is a is a lightweight system monitor that measures cpu, memory, pf,
|
|
interface and disk statistics every 5 seconds. It sends this data on to symux
|
|
for further processing. symon has been designed to inflict minimal performance
|
|
and security impact -- it can be run as nobody on the system it monitors.
|
|
|
|
symux is a non-privileged daemon that listens to incoming symon traffic. symux
|
|
can write the incoming symon streams into rrd files. Clients interested in
|
|
monitoring machine state can also log into symux and receive data as ascii as
|
|
it arrives.
