As usual, we need some means to manage/monitor the server performance closely. We also have a few Solaris machines around. We've purchased a SNMP agent from Empire Technology (www.empiretech.com) which can report various system performance related parameters, like swap usage, system load, cpu utilization, number of open file descriptor, number of processes, etc. The bad news is that their product doesn't support FreeBSD, although it does support Linux. So we cannot use this tool to monitor the system performance. Instead, we need something else which can do roughly the same thing. Among so many parameters our immediate interests is the following: * CPU utilization, % used in Kernel space vs % used in user space * RAM utilization * SWAP utilization * Network bandwidth usage * number of file descriptors used As ususal, any hints/comments are more than welcomed. Please do mail a copy of your response to me directly. Thanks! To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
