Greetings,

I am looking for a script that monitors the load of my dedicated server throughout the day/week/month and maybe also shows it as a graph. Is there anything you can recommend? Thank you in advance! :)

Kind regards

Hello,

I would recommend Nagios monitoring software. It will monitor your server including all services status, load, running processes. Even it will send your real time alerts if load cross certain limit.

The server would have to be Linux; as I don't know any Windows monitoring software.

Thank you, Hostwaresupport!
I will take a look again but I thought that Nagios is a commercial script and I forgot to mention that I am looking for a free solution. Maybe Nagios is also too overfeatured, but as said, I will take a look again!

@Swiftdesign: It is a Linux (CentOS 5) machine.

How about Zabbix? It's an open source/free software and easy to install. You can manage it through web console. By the way, Nagios is also open source/free.

cacti graphing would also be able to monitor and graph all the data via SNMP, and alert via Thresholds. And it is open source/free.

cacti.org

Munin Service Monitor is a good plugin compatible with WHM/cPanel.

@net: Thank you for moving and excuse me for posting in the wrong forum!

@all: Thank you for your very helpful answers! :agree:
I now tried the Munin Plugin for WHM as it was very easy to install and it seems as this is exactly what I was looking for. :banana:

Again, thank you all for the help & kind regards

Glad to know that you are trying Munin. :)
