[users@httpd] monitoring tools

[Melanie Pfefer <me...@yahoo.co.uk>]

hi,

My objective is to monitor apache server.

I installed webalyzer and is working fine. However, I
have these 3 questions:

1. should i run webalizer for each time I need new
stats?
2. how to log bad requests, timed-out requests...
3. I have another apache on the same machine. Can this
tool monitor a second apache?

I am looking also for a tool that monitors the
resources (cpu, ram,io...). Do you know if webalizer
can do such things (tho I doubt). Any other tool or
apache module that can report such info?

thanks.

Sorry, I haven't used Webalizer for while so I'm no use to you on that
point.

I use a tool called monit (http://www.tildeslash.com/monit ) to monitor the
run state of various system daemons (this is for UNIX and UNIX like
systems). I've used Cacti (http://cacti.net) in the past for tracking and
graphing system performance metrics. I've also used munin
(http://munin.projects.linpro.no). You can look on http://www.howtoforge.com
(not affiliated) for recipes for setting up a number of tools that do these
types of things.
