Hi,

I prepared a website to display additional graphs for a linode.
Currently it displays load, the number of processes, memory and disk usage.

Image

Just send the values to the website. It will do the graphs for you.
A simple Python client is provided to send the values.

The website:
www.linotify.com

I run it as a hobby open source project.
These are features I want to add:
  • Timezone choice. The dates are now in UTC.
  • Alerts when disk space is low or when no values are sent.


Do you like it?
What would you improve?

Thanks,
Ivo Danihelka

It looks neat, but you should be warned that you're mostly duplicating the functionality of munin:

which can be installed on a linode with a single command.

Yes, munin is very good. I will learn more about it.
Thanks for the sample charts.

I see that Linotify could be suitable for some niches:
  1. The values are sent over HTTP to the website. That is good when the nodes are behind a firewall or NAT.
  2. No extra node is required to host the website. The website is already up and running for everybody.
  3. In the future, extra info could be sent to better identify peaks. For example, it would be helpful to see 'ps aux' output for that moment.

I just implemented the support for user timezones.
The correct timezone is autodetected from the browser.
