cpu

+ +This check test to make sure that the "load" (the amount of CPU being +used) is not too high. If too much CPU is being used, services that are +provided by that system could be suffering and users on that system could be +noticing significant delays.

+ +A summary of the current load, the number of users, the number of processes +running, and the amount of time that the system has been up are provided.

+ +A list of the top 10 processes using the most CPU resources is also available +which might help indicate what processes are causing problems.

logs

+ +This check looks for "keywords" in log files that shouldn't exist. If lines +having those words are found they are reported. You would typically check for +words like "ALERT" in your syslog file, and other phrases that indicate a +problem.

+ +Log entries that have the words you are looking for are reported to the spong +server, so that you can view them while looking at the problem.

+ +If this service is "red", it could indicate a variety of problems - depending +on the log and words you are checking for.

ping

+ +This check tests the network connectivity of the machine. Periodically, every +machine is "pinged" from the spong server machine to check to see if it is +accessible via the network. If this service is "red", it could indicate a +couple of different problems.

+ +Either the machine itself is down or frozen, or there is a network problem +between the spong server and the machine. If you find that a large majority +of machines have their ping service marked as "red", this would typically +indicate a networking problem (or a wide scale problem associated with a +power failure or some other disaster).

+ +If the ping service is not available, then chances are most services running +on that machine are also marked "red" (or "purple"), since if the machine can +not be accessed via the network, any client information probably won't be +reported either.

+ +If there is a connectivity problem, then a traceroute is done between the spong +server and the machine being monitored. This information might be helpful to +someone trying to determine where the problem lies (if it is a networking +problem).

procs

+ +A summary message is provided indicating what processes are not running (if +any), and more detailed information is also provided showing the complete +process list of all the processes that you expect to be running.

+ +If this service not "green", it indicates that some program that should be +running is not, which could prevent people from accessing a service, or cause +other problems.

Spong Basics

+ +Son of Pong (spong) is a simple system monitoring package, that will monitor +system attributes and network services on a variety of machines. It will +gather status reports and contact staff if there are problems. It will also +summarize the information and display it via web interface (which is what you +are using).

+ +Systems and the status of the services provided by those hosts are summarized +in a tables on the right of the screen. Hostnames make up the vertical axis +of each table, and services make up the horizontal axis. For each row, and +column of the table, if that service is running on that host, then a colored +dot is located in that position. The color of the dot represents the status +of that service. A green dot indicates that everything appears ok, a yellow +dot indicates that there might be a problem, and a red dot indicates that +there is a problem that requires attention.

+ +Problems that require attention are summarized and listed in the column on the +left of the screen. Information about each problem (such as the host, and +service having the problem, the time that the problem occured, and the person +to contact about the problem) is provided for each host that requires +attention.

+ +Help is provided by clicking the "Help" link on the main screen (which takes +you to this page). You can also get additional information about each service +by clicking on the service headings at the top of each table. + +If you click on the hostnames in the table, you will be taken to a screen +which provides more detailed information about that host. A table of the +services running on that host is listed at the top of the page, with the +bottom of the page having two columns. The column on the left shows any host +specific text that you supply. The column on the right shows the history of +problems that have occured on that host.

+ +If you click on any of the "dots" in the table, you will be taken to a page +showing more detailed service information. At the top of the page shows +detailed information that might be useful in diagnosing the problem, the +bottom of the page shows the history of that service.

+ +

+

Nitty Gritty Details

+ +If you are just a casual user of spong - someone who keeps track of the web +page, or someone who reacts to problems reported by spong, then hopefully the +above documentation is sufficient to your needs.

+ +However, if you are someone who needs to install spong, or configure either +the client thresholds, or the network services that should be monitored, then +the following HTML versions of the man pages should be of use.
