information on the performance of a number of systems.
Currently the "suite" consists of these parts:
symon - lightweight system monitor. Can be run with privleges equivalent
to nobody on the monitored host. Offers no functionality but monitoring
and forwarding of measured data.
symux - persists data. Incoming symon streams are stored on disk in rrd
files. symux offers systems statistics as they come in to 3rd party
clients.
syweb - draws rrdtool pictures of the stored data. syweb is a php script
that can deal with chrooted apaches. It can show all systems that are
monitored in one go, or be configured to only show a set of graphs.
sylcd - symux client that drives CrystalFontz and HD44780 lcds. sylcd
shows current network load on a specific host.
SymuxClient.pm - generic perl symux client. Could, for instance, be used
to get the hourly amount of data that was transmitted on a particular
interface.
