Redhat linux server resource monitoring

[Greaser, Tom]

Hello Ganashekar

Like you said nmon is a good on system tool.  Another good one is sar  "think its short for system activity report". (on my fedora box sar2.x86_64    2.3.0-2.fc15)
I like to use ksar http://sourceforge.net/projects/ksar/ (java app) that  reads all the sar data.
Like others off system monitor tools nagios and cacti are my go to tools.

What tools did you / do you use on AIX ? Its always good to know what others do .

Hi,

I am from an IBM aix background.
Recently I have started managing Linux on intel hardware.

I am looking for a tool to monitor and trend the resource (CPU, memory, paging & network) utilization. I use nmon on IBM hardware.  I can also download nmon executable compiled for intel and red hat Linux.

Curious to know if there is any other tool similar to nmon that majority of the Linux community uses.

Thanks,
