linux system monitoring tools
 

Hello All
I just need to ask about any existing tool in linux which can show us the CPU memory and swap utilizations of overall system for particular time duration and generate graphs.?i m a student of computer science and want this information of resource utilization for my project..kindly reply if any of u liux fans knows about such tools.

Cacti is an excellent tool for this kind of graphing and performance data retention.

Assuming you were just looking for stats on the system over a period of time, sar is an excellent choice.

Nagios is a web based monitoring tool. Is a very complex too but can be simple with base install.

I use Conky... It is lightweight and extremely customizable
