NAME
saidar - a curses-based tool for viewing system statistics SYNOPSIS
saidar [-d delay] [-c] [-v] [-h] DESCRIPTION
saidar is a curses-based tool for viewing the system statistics available through libstatgrab. Statistics include CPU, processes, load, memory, swap, network I/O, disk I/O, and file system information. OPTIONS
The following options are supported. -d DELAY Wait DELAY seconds between updates (default 3) -c Enables coloured output -v Prints the version number -h Display help and exits COLOURED OUTPUT
When the -c option is used saidar uses colours to display the data. Each area has a different colour to distinguish it from the nearby fields. Bold and reverse video effects are used to emphasis fields where necessary. The load average figures are displayed in bold when they're notably (greater that 1) different to each other. This purely shows that a change in the load is occurring. When CPU usage goes over 60% it will be displayed in bold. At 90% the field is displayed using reverse video. Likewise for memory, swap and disk usage at 75% and 90%. Zombie processes are also highlighted. Other values (paging, disk I/O and network I/O) are not highlighted due to the nature of the values; it's not easy to determine what thresholds are significant. SEE ALSO

NAME
statgrab - sysctl-style interface to system statistics SYNOPSIS
statgrab [OPTION]... [STAT]... DESCRIPTION
statgrab provides a sysctl-style interface to all the system statistics available through libstatgrab. This is useful for applications that don't want to make library calls, but still want to access the statistics. An example of such an application is mrtg, for which scripts are provided to generate configuration files. OPTIONS
The following options are supported. -l Linux sysctl-style output (default) -b BSD sysctl-style output -m MRTG-compatible output -u Plain output (only show values) -n Display cumulative stats once (default) -s Display stat differences repeatedly -o Display stat differences once -t DELAY When repeating, wait DELAY seconds between updates (default 1) -p Display CPU usage differences as percentages rather than absolute values -f FACTOR Display floating-point values as integers scaled by FACTOR -K Display byte counts in kibibytes -M Display byte counts in mebibytes -G Display byte counts in gibibytes If no STAT options are given, all will be displayed. Specify 'STAT.' to display all statistics starting with that prefix. SEE ALSO
