Description:
The PBload tool will display and log the actual server load averages (1 minute, 5 minutes and 15 minutes) and also display load graphics for different periods of time. The tool also provides the logged data in the CSV format, which allows the user to import the data into other applications like Microsoft Excel. To log the load data, a cronjob has to be installed which runs all 5 minutes and executes the log script. This tool uses the PHPlot Graph Library 6.0.0 and the Vera TrueType Fonts to create the graphics. Both, the graph library and the fonts are already included in the download package!
The PBload tool has a well written User Manual of 42 pages (1.7 MB – PDF format).
This script is for everyone who wants to monitor the average server load on a Linux host (You need to know how to upload files to your webhost, how to edit a configuration file and optional, how to password protect a directory.)
Please check the User Manual, the Screenshots and the Online-Demo for more information!
I hope you like this tool!
