In the past, we\u2019ve covered lots of command-line based tools for\u00a0monitoring Linux performance<\/a>, such as\u00a0top<\/a>,\u00a0htop<\/a>,\u00a0atop<\/a>,\u00a0glances<\/a>\u00a0and more, and a number of web based tools such as\u00a0cockpit<\/a>,\u00a0pydash<\/a>,\u00a0linux-dash<\/a>, just to mention but a few. You can also run\u00a0glances<\/strong>\u00a0in web server mode to monitor remote servers. But all that aside, we have discovered yet another simple server monitoring tool that we would like to share with you, called\u00a0Scout_Realtime<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Scout_Realtime<\/strong>\u00a0is a simple, easy-to-use web based tool for monitoring Linux server metrics in real-time, in a top-like fashion. It shows you smooth-flowing charts about metrics gathered from the CPU, memory, disk, network, and\u00a0processes (top 10)<\/a>, in real-time.<\/p>\n

In this article, we will show you how install\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0monitoring tool on Linux systems to monitor a remote server.<\/p>\n

Installing Scout_Realtime Monitoring Tool in Linux<\/h3>\n

1.<\/strong>\u00a0To install\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0on your Linux server, you must have\u00a0Ruby 1.9.3+<\/strong>\u00a0installed on your server using following command.<\/p>\n

$ sudo apt-get install rubygems\t\t[On Debian\/Ubuntu<\/strong>]\r\n$ sudo yum -y install rubygems-devel\t[On RHEL\/CentOS<\/strong>]\r\n$ sudo dnf -y install rubygems-devel\t[On Fedora 22+<\/strong>]\r\n<\/pre>\n
2.<\/strong>\u00a0Once you have installed\u00a0Ruby<\/strong>\u00a0on your Linux system, now you can install\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0package using the following command.<\/center><\/p>\n
$ sudo gem install scout_realtime\r\n<\/pre>\n
3.<\/strong>\u00a0After successfully installing\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0package, next, you need to start the\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0daemon which will collect server metrics in real-time as shown.<\/p>\n
$ scout_realtime\r\n<\/pre>\n

4.<\/strong>\u00a0Now that the\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0daemon is running on your Linux server that you want to monitor remotely on port\u00a05555<\/strong>. If you are running a firewall, you need to open the port\u00a05555<\/strong>\u00a0which\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0listens on, in the firewall to allow requests to it.<\/p>\n
---------- On Debian\/Ubuntu ----------<\/strong>\r\n$ sudo ufw allow 27017  \r\n$sudo ufw reload \r\n\r\n---------- On RHEL\/CentOS 6.x ----------<\/strong>\r\n$ sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 5555 -j ACCEPT    \r\n$ sudo service iptables restart\r\n\r\n---------- On RHEL\/CentOS 7.x ----------<\/strong>\r\n$ sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=5555\/tcp       \r\n$ sudo firewall-cmd reload \r\n<\/pre>\n
5.<\/strong>\u00a0Now from any other machine, open a web browser and use the URL below to access the\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0to monitor your remote Linux server performance.<\/p>\n
http:\/\/localhost:5555 \r\nOR\r\nhttp:\/\/ip-address-or-domain.com:5555 \r\n<\/pre>\n

6.<\/strong>\u00a0By default,\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0logs are written in\u00a0.scout\/scout_realtime.log<\/strong>\u00a0on the system, that you can view using\u00a0cat command<\/a>.<\/p>\n
$ cat .scout\/scout_realtime.log\r\n<\/pre>\n
7.<\/strong>\u00a0To stop the\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0daemon, run the following command.<\/p>\n
$ scout_realtime stop\r\n<\/pre>\n
8.<\/strong>\u00a0To uninstall\u00a0scout_realtime<\/strong>\u00a0from the system, run the following command.<\/p>\n
$ gem uninstall scout_realtime\r\n<\/pre>\n
