load monitor script

locabuilt · #1 (**permalink**) 01-15-2007

I need help in finding a script to monitor loads for 8+ servers on a single console. The goal here is to centralize it and run the script from a single server. Can anyone help on this?

Im running this script on each server to monitor the load.
while true; do w | grep average | grep -v grep ; sleep 4; done

Nagios will do what you're asking. BTW, do you really need to grep out the grep?

otherwise I have something in mind, but it's too complicated and time consuming to be done, it includes tcl/expect and STAF.

No need to use "w | grep average | grep -v grep" uptime gives you what you want

Code:

# uptime
  8:48am  up 144 day(s), 8 min(s),  5 users,  load average: 0.23, 0.19, 0.18
#

You might want to look at Big Brother aswell, not as complicated as nagios to setup

Or for a bit more info try prstat

Code:

# prstat 1 1 | grep average
Total: 96 processes, 194 lwps, load averages: 0.15, 0.16, 0.17
#

OR For even more info instead of just the average line....

Code:

# prstat -ac 1 1

uptime will be more benifit , with script which collects all the server loads

#!/bin/sh

loadcnt=$(uptime | awk -F "." '{ print $1 }' | awk -F ":" '{ print $5 }') echo " the current load:"$loadcnt if [ $loadcnt -gt 0 ]; then echo "Alert System Process handling exceeded"
fi;

u can individually execute this script on differetn script using the SSH command

ssh 192.168.23.22 "sh /bin/alertscript.sh" > monitorfile
