Dstat is a versatile replacement for vmstat, iostat, netstat and ifstat.
Dstat overcomes some of their limitations and adds some extra features,
more counters and flexibility. Dstat is handy for monitoring systems
during performance tuning tests, benchmarks or troubleshooting.

Dstat allows you to view all of your system resources instantly, you
can eg. compare disk usage in combination with interrupts from your
IDE controller, or compare the network bandwidth numbers directly
with the disk throughput (in the same interval).

Dstat gives you detailed selective information in columns and clearly
indicates in what magnitude and unit the output is displayed. Less
confusion, less mistakes.

Linux has always been able to show how much I/O was going on (the bi
and bo columns of the vmstat 1 command).

Iotop is a Python program with a UI similar to top to show on behalf of
which process is the I/O going on.

Sphinx is a full-text search engine, distributed under GPL version 2.
Commercial licensing is also available upon request.

Generally, it's a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast,
size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other
applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate well with SQL
databases and scripting languages. Currently built-in data source
drivers support fetching data either via direct connection to MySQL,
PostgreSQL, or from a pipe in a custom XML format.

As for the name, Sphinx is an acronym which is officially decoded as
SQL Phrase Index. Yes, I know about CMU's Sphinx project.

CIM, WBEM and all the other nice goodies for enterprise systems management.

This package is based on the package 'cim-schema' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

Common Information Model (CIM) is a model for describing overall
management information in a network or enterprise environment. CIM
consists of a specification and a schema. The specification defines the
details for integration with other management models. The schema
provides the actual model descriptions.

A utility allowing CMPI provider packages to register with whatever CIMOM(s) happens to be present on the system.

Base System CIM Providers

NOTE: Automatically created during Factory devel project migration by admin.

A CMPI provider to publish Service Processor information

PyWBEM is a Python module for making CIM operation calls using the WBEM
protocol to query and update managed objects.

Additional Standards Based Linux Instrumentation Base Providers

This package is based on the package 'sblim-cmpi-dhcp' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

Standards Based Linux dhcp Instrumentation Providers

This package is based on the package 'sblim-cmpi-fsvol' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

The Filesystem & Volume Management Instrumentation allows you to get
information about mounted ( /etc/mtab ) and unmounted ( /etc/fstab )
filesystems via CIMOM technology/infrastructure.

This package is based on the package 'sblim-cmpi-network' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

Standards Based Linux Instrumentation Network Providers. The Network
Instrumentation allows you to get information about the network
configuration of a system via CIMOM technology/infrastructure.

This package is based on the package 'sblim-cmpi-nfsv3' from project 'openSUSE:Factory'.

Standards Based Linux NFSv3 Instrumentation Providers

Standards Based Linux NFSv4 Instrumentation Providers

The various kernel parameter providers in this package expose the Linux
kernel parameters that are accessible under subdirs of /proc/sys/. Each
subdir contains kernel parameters for the respective kernel function,
and is implemented as a separate CIM_Setting subclass. Each provider
acts as instrumentation for that particular kernel parameter subclass.

The respective kernel parameter providers allow an administrator to
view and possibly modify the many different kernel parameters of a
Linux system via the CIMOM. All kernel parameters settings can be
viewed, however only those parameters whose associated file is
writeable can be modified.

Standards Based Linux Instrumentation System Management BIOS Providers. The
BIOS Instrumentation allows to get BIOS inventory information about a system
remotely via a CIMOM . These providers will function only on x86 architecture
for the moment .
