Resource Monitoring Tool spotlight-instructions for use

 

I used this tool a few years ago and found it very convenient to monitor remote servers. I used it again in conjunction with the stress test for resource monitoring. I suddenly remembered it, so as not to be unfamiliar. Record it here!

 

1. The monitored server is Ubuntu server. First, create a user on the server for monitoring!

You must have the permission to remotely monitor the server and obtain the server resources. The usage documentation clearly states that root users cannot be used, but I cannot use other existing users. Therefore, only one new user can be created. For convenience, spotlight is used as the user name. The settings are as follows:

> Useradd spotlight

> Passwd spotlight

The password is OK. It's good to say that this user must have the root permission, but here I just want to create a friend with the same user. If the startup has root user permissions, the command is as follows, and the password is slightly more complex.

> Useradd-g root spotlight

> Passwd spotlight

Set the password.

 

2. install monitoring tools on the server, such as sysstat and ubuntu.

> Apt-Get install sysstat

Complete.

 

3. Install spotlight on the local machine and create the following monitoring information:

Go to the spotlight interface, go to the File menu, and click Connect To Go To The following interface,

　　

Double-click Add new connection to create a new monitoring link.

　　

Fill in OK.

 

4. The monitoring information is as follows:

　　

The monitoring information is clear at a glance.

 

Of course, spotlight can monitor a lot of resources as follows:

　　

　　

Spotlight is a lightweight remote monitoring tool. Currently, we only use it to monitor Linux servers.
