It connects with SSH (using - SSH public/private key auth) to several servers at once and vizualizes - all server CPUs and memory statistics right next each other (either - summarized or each core separately). Loadbars is not a tool for - collecting CPU loads and drawing graphs for later analysis. However, - since such tools require a significant amount of time before producing - results, Loadbars lets you observe the current state immediately. - Loadbars does not remember or record any load information. It just shows - the current CPU usages like top or vmstat does. - -INFO - CPU stuff - st = Steal in % [see man proc] (extended), Color: Red - - gt = Guest in % [see man proc] (extended), Color: Red - - sr = Soft IRQ usage in % (extended), Color: White - - ir = IRQ usage in % (extended), Color: White - - io = IOwait cpu sage in %, Color: Purple - - id = Idle cpu usage in % (extended), Color: Black - - ni = Nice cpu usage in %, Color: Green - - us = User cpu usage in %, Color: Yellow, dark yellow if to>50%, orange - if to>50% - - sy = System cpu sage in %, Color: Blue, lighter blue if >30% - - to = Total CPU usage, which is (100% - id) - - pk = Max us+sy peak of last avg. samples (extended) - - 1px horizontal line: Maximum sy+us+io of last 'avg' samples (extended) - - Memory stuff - Ram: System ram usage in %, Color: Dark grey - - Swp: System swap usage in %, Color: Grey - - Network stuff - Rxb: Incoming (received) traffic in %, Color: Light green, normal green - if >100% while using low netlink reference.

For comments just - use the '#' sign. Sample config: - - showcores=1 # Always show cores on startup - - will always show all CPU cores. If you press the 'w' hotkey during - program execution your config file will be overwritten using the current - settings. - -LICENSE - See package description or project website. - -AUTHOR - Paul Buetow - <http://buetow.org> - |
