Java server audit

Hi all..


I need to perform an audit on my servers (ranging form mdk to redhat, knoppix...). I know there exists somewhere a script that could get me back the info i want..
I've googled around, and haven't found anything interesting.. Anyone have some thing i could investigate?


Thanx

Jason

How many servers are you required to perform an audit on?

And what type of audit are you trying to perform?

about 15 server...
the kind of reports i need include % disk space, processes running, patch level, etc...
i'm not interested about a security audit for the moment...

For what it's worth, some time ago I wrote a Linux system information script using Perl - it requires Perl (obviously Smilie) and a Java-able web browser to view the output.

http://www.zazzybob.com/zsysinfo.html

Sample output...
http://www.zazzybob.com/info_outfile.html

It doesn't show patch levels, but it's GPL'd so modify as you wish! Smilie You could easily add a section to the script to display the output from ps aux or other commands as required.

Cheers

penguin-friend,

take a look at this http://spong.sourceforge.net
I had been using BigBrother (http://www.bb4.org) for years when it was available for no fee. However, it's not freeware any more since it became product of Quest Software Ltd.
Spong provides similar functionality if you want just monitor server resources.

What l'm looking for looks a lot like what zazzybob talked about...
