dfeta samples disk freespace information on regular periods. then it can show a
rough estimate time when disk/device will be full.
Freecolor is a "free" replacement for Linux that displays free memory
graphically.
Ftop is to files what top is to processes. The progress of all open files and
file systems can be monitored. If run as a regular user, the set of open files
will be limited to those in that user's processes (which is generally all that
is of interest to the user). In any case, the selection of which files to
display is possible through a wide assortment of options. As with top, the
items are displayed in order from most to least active.
Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for
high-performance computing systems, such as clusters and grids. It is
based on a hierarchical design targeted at federations of clusters. It
relies on a multicast-based listen/announce protocol to monitor the
state within clusters and uses a tree of point-to-point connections
among representative cluster nodes to federate clusters and aggregate
their state. It leverages widely-used technologies such as XML for data
representation, XDR for compact, portable data transport, and RRDtool
for data storage and visualization.
Jnettop allows administrators of routers to watch online traffic coming
across the network in a fashion similar to the way top displays statistics
about processes. It is useful for quickly evaluating the state of the network.

latrace is a glibc 2.4+ LD_AUDIT frontend. It allows you to trace library calls
and get their statistics in a manner similar to the strace utility.
libESMTP is a library to manage posting (or submission of) electronic
mail using SMTP to a preconfigured Mail Transport Agent (MTA) such as
Exim. It may be used as part of a Mail User Agent (MUA) or another
program that must be able to post electronic mail but where mail
functionality is not that program's primary purpose.
The libstatgrab library provides an easy-to-use interface for accessing system
statistics and information.
Available statistics include CPU, Load, Memory, Swap, Disk I/O, and Network
I/O. It was developed to work on Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris.
The package also includes two tools: saidar provides a curses-based interface
for viewing live system statistics, and statgrab is a sysctl-like interface to
the statistics.
Monit is a utility for managing and monitoring processes, files,
directories, and devices on a Unix system. Monit conducts automatic
maintenance and repair and can execute meaningful causal actions in
error situations. For example, monit can start a process if it does
not run, restart a process if it does not respond, and stop a process
if it uses too many resources. You can use monit to monitor files,
directories, and devices for changes, such as time stamp changes,
checksum changes, or size changes. You can even use monit to monitor
remote hosts: monit can ping a remote host and check port connections.
MultiTail lets you view one or multiple files like the original
tail program.
The difference is that it creates multiple windows on your console
(with ncurses). Merging of 2 or even more logfiles is possible.
It can also use colors while displaying the logfiles (through
regular expressions), for faster recognition of what is important
and what not. It can also filter lines (again with regular
expressions). It has interactive menus for editing given regular
expressions and deleting and adding windows. One can also have
windows with the output of shell scripts and other software. When
viewing the output of external software, MultiTail can mimic the
functionality of tools like 'watch' and such.
Nagcon is a console application interfacing to Nagios which gives you an
overview of all services with troubled services.
Nagserv serves the nagios status as an RSS-feed.
Nagserv is also an interface between the Nagios 2.0 or 3.0 status.log
file and programs like Nagwatch and older versions (< v0.71) of nsc.
pktstat listens to the network and shows the bandwidth being consumed by packets of various kinds in realtime. It understands some protocols (including FTP, HTTP, and X11) and adds a descriptive name next to the entry.
proctail is like a line-oriented 'top'. It displays memory-usage, load and the
processes which used cpu-time since the last check.
psinfo shows process information and statistics using the kernel /proc
interface. This information includes: process state, environment, arguments and
flags; CPU usage; scheduling; I/O usage; virtual memory status; pagefaults;
capabilities; and signals. psinfo is useful for providing a detailed view of
the current state of an application when diagnosing issues or performance
problems.
pwatch is a set of tools to analyze what a process is doing.
Right now only 'io' (ex iotop) command is implemented.
It presents the I/O activity in a nice ncurses screen and you have the
possibility to sort by read/write speed ore amount of readed/written bytes from
the start of the program.
It was written to easly detect which program is eating a lot of I/O bandwidth.
stress is a simple tool that imposes a configurable amount of CPU, memory,
I/O, and disk stress on POSIX-compliant operating systems. It is written in
portable ANSI C, and uses the GNU Autotools to compile on most UNIX-like
operating systems.
stress is not a benchmark. It is a tool used by system administrators to
evaluate how well their systems will scale, by kernel programmers to evaluate
perceived performance characteristics, and by systems programmers to expose
the classes of bugs which only or more frequently manifest themselves when the
system is under heavy load.
Tailbeep opens a file (-f), seeks to the end, and watches for a string (-s). If
the string is found, a beep is sent to the specified tty (-t) device. You can
also daemonize (-d) it. It was written to watch... /var/log/messages for the
DENY string (to catch anyone trying to break into a firewall), but you can use
it to watch any open file that gets appended to. You can also create a log if
you like, so you can record the events, in long or short mode. Tailbeep
requires write access to one of the tty devices on the console.
A drop-in replacement for the original (GNU-)tail program which uses the SGI
FAM daemon instead of polling every second.
Monitor system resources and the processes using those resources.
* Overhead is low, supporting a sample interval down to 0.1 seconds
* Overall system and top process resources are shown on one page
* CPU, memory, disk I/O, network I/O, and page faults are monitored
* Usage for N CPUs shown on a scale from zero to N x 100%
* The highest ranked processes fitting in the window are shown, with minimal
jumping around between samples (easy to watch one or a few processes)
* Process rank is a weighted sum of CPU, hard page faults, and disk I/O over
the last few samples (the weight of each sample declines over time)
* Filter processes by user, PID, executable
* Font can be made large or small (for display in monitor corner)
* Click on a process to kill the process (after confirmation)

This project contains PHP extensions that are not part of the PHP distribution.
Software for server based search.
Texterize is a text and metadata extraction tool and library which can be used
to quickly get the text content of a file. It currently supports file formats
like PDF, Excel, Powerpoint, Word, RTF, WordPerfect, MP3, Ogg, and all
OpenDocument file formats. The output of texterize is either text or XML. It is
also designed to work with Unicode input and output, and the default output
character set is UTF-8. Texterize also has a recursive mode so that whole
directories (or whole filesystems) can be converted to text. This recursion
also works through archive files and compressed files like zip, tar, and gz
files.
This project provides various shells, like zsh and others. It also serves as development project for packages around the topic of shells in the openSUSE:Factory distribution. If you want to participate you can contact us individually. Please report bugs to the respective bugowners as set.
