This is an old revision of the document!
Glances is a cross-platform curses-based system monitoring tool written in Python.
see https://github.com/nicolargo/glances and https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/blob/master/docs/glances-doc.rst
Add my repository
yum install http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/NethServer/6/noarch/nethserver-stephdl-1.0.0-1.ns6.noarch.rpm
then install the module
yum install nethserver-glances --enablerepo=stephdl
after that you need to launch the sensor detection
sensors-detect
After the installation the service which control the web interface is launched, if you want to control it
service glances stop
can be also {restart,start,stop,status}
or you can use the neth way (enabled/disabled)
config setprop glances status disabled signal-event nethserver-glances-update
each time you launch that signal-event, you will update glances and its dependencies
see config db
# config show glances glances=service TCPPort=61208 access=private status=enabled
The purpose is to see in direct the server activities (you can see raid, disk IO, sensors, bandwithd, memory, docker, ….)
Well a lot of good stuffs.
In order to use it go to Dashboard→Applications→Glances. It is a web service restricted on the private network. But if you don't like to use the web interface, then you can disable it and use only the CLI in your terminal (do simply 'glances')
in order to disable the glances web interface (and continue to use the CLI)
config setprop glances status disabled signal-event nethserver-glances-update
You can change the default TCP port
config setprop glances TCPPort 55555 signal-event nethserver-glances-update
