hostscope - Linux system monitoring tool for multiple hosts

Description

HostScope displays key system metrics of Linux hosts, such as detailed CPU load, speed and temperature, I/O rates of network interfaces, I/O rates of disks, and user process summary information. All metrics are multicast on the LAN, if wanted, and clients can switch between multiple hosts on the network.

Hostscope features a bridge to Influx DB. So Grafana can be used to visualized the recorded data over time. See picture below.

Its output looks like this:

Compatibility

hostscope is beeing developed on Linux. For now only Linux is supported. Future versions might also support other systems.

Features

Hostscope has a new, non-obvious feature: it has the capability to monitor multiple machines on the network. Just start a hostscope daemon (hostscoped) on every machine you want to monitor. Then start a hostscope anywhere on the network, and all machines will show up on a list at the bottom. You can now toggle through the available hosts, using the hotkeys h and H.
