PrimeAlert SystemMonitor for Linux

The PrimeAlert SystemMonitor for Linux provides information about the operating system and its components. It is similar to the Kernel Reader Simple module of Sun Management Center. The following subfolders are available:

User Statistics

Displays information about the current console user, the number of current users and sessions, and the primary user of the system.

Process Statistics

Displays information about current processes on your Linux system grouped by their state. This subfolder also shows the total number of processes and the process capacity as well as the process limit. Probe commands provide a detailed view of processes in different states and ordered by several criteria.

System Load

Provides information about the current system load (1–minute, 5–minute and 15–minute load averages).

CPU Usage

Provides information about the current usage of the CPU. Shown are idle time, busy time, system time, user time, and the average CPU usage.

Swap Usage

Displays information about the total and available swap space and the current usage of swap memory. A probe command provides detailed information about allocated swap space.

Filesystem Usage

Displays information about mounted filesystems. For each filesystem, the total size, available space, used space, and the change rate of used space are shown.

Network Interfaces

Lists installed network interfaces and reports input/output packet errors and collisions. Probe commands can be used to obtain information about route tables and protocols.

TCP Connections

Provides information about existing TCP connections. Probe commands generate a detailed view of network statistics for several protocols (for example, Inet, TCP, and UDP).

IPC Facilities

Displays information about IPC message queues, shared memory, and semaphores.
