slant-collectd —
daemon to collect system statistics
slant-collectd |
[-nv] [-d
discs] [-f
dbfile] [-p
procs] |
The slant-collectd utility collects system statistics
and records them in dbfile, which defaults to
/var/www/data/slant.db. Its arguments are as follows:
-n- Do not open the database: collect data only.
-v- Print collected data as a table to standard output.
-d
discs- Discs to monitor. Multiple discs may be separated by a comma. By default,
all discs are monitored.
-p
procs- Processes to monitor. Multiple processes may be separated by a comma.
Processes should be listed by their executable name, e.g.,
httpd instead of
/usr/sbin/httpd.
-f
dbfile- The SQLite database file.
To end collection, kill the process with
SIGINT or SIGTERM, which
will gracefully end the collection sequence.
On a system with software RAID (or software FDE), monitor only the root disc to
prevent bandwidth duplication.
To additionally monitor CGI and login facilities:
# slant-collectd -d sd0 -p slowcgi,httpd,sshd
