Ram and CPU usage history log

odegos · 05-20-2007, 03:20 PM

Hi there, Is there a place where I can see the Ram and CPU usage in some sort of history log? I restarted a server but forgot to look at the swap memory usage.

Thanks

If you have sysstat installed you can run sar commands to save and view performance history.

See if you have sysstat installed - sar should have that for you.

Edit: d'oh ...

mrtg is another good tool is you want to display it on a web interface and view it in graphs

Hi to all, I just want to thank you all for your input. I knew about the 'sar' command but never thought that it would have attributes to it like the '-r' for ram history. I clicked once I started reading your posts. Thanks a mil!
