What is Monitorix?

Monitorix
The Monitorix Project
Monitorix is a free, open source, lightweight system monitoring tool designed to monitorize as many services as possible. At this time it monitors from the CPU load and temperatures to the users using the system. Network devices activity, network services demand and even the devices' interrupt activity are also monitored. The current status of any corporate Linux server with Monitorix installed can be accessed via a web browser.

It has been designed to be used under production UNIX/Linux servers, but due its simplicity you can use it to monitor embedded devices, or in your laptop or even in your Linux box at home as well.

All its development was initially created for monitoring Red Hat, Fedora and CentOS Linux systems, so this project was made keeping in mind these distributions. Since 0.8.0 though, is easier to port it to other Linux distributions and even to other UNIX systems like FreeBSD.

Monitorix is an open source project and, just like any other open source project, anyone can contribute with its own time and knowledgements.
