graphic, representation
To get a visual representation of hard drive temperatures, I wrote a small script. The output of this script looks like this:
This output is tailored to the exact disk lay-out of my storage
server. However, it is also usable for other servers. You have to edit the
lay-out depending on the system.
This script assumes that you have smartmontools installed on your system. It uses smartctl to obtain the drive temperatures.
The script can be found here or here in tgz format.
If a system is connected to a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), it is possible to determine how much power it consumes. For this purpose, I wrote a small script:
Host:~# ./ups.sh
UPS model: Back-UPS RS 1200 LCD
APC model: Back-UPS RS 1200 LC
Capacity: 720 Watt
Load: 18 Percent
Usage: 129 Watt
Time left: 33 Minutes
Status: ONLINE
Host:~# ./ups.sh
UPS model: Back-UPS RS 1200 LCD
APC model: Back-UPS RS 1200 LC
Capacity: 720 Watt
Load: 19 Percent
Usage: 136 Watt
Time left: 22 Minutes
Status: ONBATT
This script assumes that:
You are running a unix
You run apcupsd
The script can be downloaded here:
