Tecmint has an article on the open source Collectl Performance Monitoring system.

Might want to check the link... I'm seeing pictures of a cat talking about BRexit.

Probably better than the intended article.

Interface looks horrible. I'll stick with top or glances like I normally do for now.

How many of those work for remote machines, though?

True. I only looked and didn't actually read the article yet. If it collects that info for many systems instead of just one at a time it'd be an invaluable tool for a sysadmin.

Yes, they only show it doing local in the examples. but the real purpose of it is to be a centralized CLI based performance monitoring solution.

That data could then be sent over to ELK, etc... and pretty dashboards, etc can be generated.

Yes, ELK can do that. Much heavier, though.

What would be the point of sending data to Collectl and then to ELK? You would jsut send it to ELK directly.

Oh I didn't catch that. Yes, one or the other. Both would be a LOT of traffic and overhead and who would use both?

@dafyre obviously.

What do you do if you need to visualize all this data that collectl is gathering? I see no utilities included to help with that... unless it is used for on the fly tracking, and not long term stuff.

ELK can collect directly, it doesn't need Collectl. At least for most things.

How? Using the Logstash fowarder?

Topstash or something like that.
