MikeMike Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Can anyone recommend a script that will keep track of my Unix servers down time, cpu load etc... and send a message to my cell phone and email me whenever it goes down or up again? Regards Mike
Guest Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 your host should be able to tell you where/what needs to be installed.
mattice Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 You'll need another server to do that - unless you are able to execute a script from your dead server ;) Quick 'n dirty but pretty failproof (on your own server) 1) alter the login scripts so whenever someone logs into SSH you get an e-mail with his credentials and time of login 2) same for shutdown script - this gets executed just before shutdown - so have it e-mail you 3) run a cron every morning that checks status of deamons and e-mails the results. If you do NOT get your e-mail something is seriously wrong, if you do get it you should actually READ IT :) Regards Matthijs "Politics is the art of preventing people from taking part in affairs which properly concern them"
