#Monit ubuntu 14.04 install#

Munin statistics update with cron job in 5 minute intervals, so after a while the graphs will look better. Here are few basic graphs, as you can see, while I had stress going on, the graphs were going high. But for example firefox uses 7.9 % of memory capacity (this isn’t the whole true though) Analyzing Munin statistics Apparently stress didn’t use any memory, which confuses me. I’m not quite sure why there are two processes running, but the main point is that we can analyze the load. We can see that stress uses 24,4 and 19.9 % of maximum capacity.

stress -cpu 8 -io 4 -vm 2 -vm-bytes 128m -timeout 20s This is why I inserted timeout to be 20 seconds. Stress will use all CPU Cores and load the machine quite heavily. Statisics look something like this without stressĪnd like this with stress. While stress is running, I’ll open another terminal window with htop.

#Monit ubuntu 14.04 install#

While this is running I will monitor base stats with htop sudo apt-get install stress -y Next I will apply stress to computer with program called stress. Under localdomain.localhost directory you’ll find various charts and statistics about your computers hardware usage. This will open up directory of munin statistic files. Then I’ll open munin data with browser by entering file:///var/cache/munin/www to browser Next install munin and munin-node sudo apt-get install munin -y I’ll be using Ubuntu 14.04 live boot USB stick on a computer with following specs:įirst upgrade and update your Ubuntu sudo apt-get update In this blog post I will be monitoring Ubuntu 14.04 with various tools and stressing it out with stress.
