<p>Glances is a cross-platform curses-based system monitoring tool which
aims to present a maximum of information in a minimum of space, ideally
to fit in a classical 80x24 terminal or higher to have additional
information. It can adapt dynamically the displayed information depending
on the terminal size.</p>
<p>Glances can also work in client/server mode. Remote monitoring could be
done via terminal or web interface.</p>
<p>Glances is written in Python and uses the <a class="reference external" href="https://code.google.com/p/psutil/">psutil</a> library to get
information from your system.</p>

<div class="section" id="usage">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id6">Usage</a></h1>
<div class="section" id="standalone-mode">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id7">Standalone Mode</a></h2>
<p>Simply run:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic prompt">$</span> glances
</pre>
</div>
<div class="section" id="client-server-mode">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id8">Client/Server Mode</a></h2>
<p>If you want to remotely monitor a machine, called <tt class="docutils literal">server</tt>, from
another one, called <tt class="docutils literal">client</tt>, just run on the server:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic output">server$ glances -s</span>
</pre>
<p>and on the client:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic output">client$ glances -c @server</span>
</pre>
<p>where <tt class="docutils literal">@server</tt> is the IP address or hostname of the server.</p>
<p>Glances can centralize available Glances servers using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--browser</span></tt> option. The server list can be staticaly defined in the Glances configuration file (section [serverlist]). Glances can also detect and display all Glances servers available on you network (auto discover mode is based on the the Zeroconf protocol only available on GNU/Linux and Mac OS X):</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic output">client$ glances --browser</span>
</pre>
<p>It is possible to disable the auto discover mode <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--disable-autodiscover</span></tt>.</p>
<p>In server mode, you can set the bind address <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-B</span> ADDRESS</tt> and listening
TCP port <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-p</span> PORT</tt>.</p>
<p>In client mode, you can set the TCP port of the server <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-p</span> PORT</tt>.</p>
<p>You can set a password to access to the server <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--password</span></tt>.</p>
<p>Default binding address is <tt class="docutils literal">0.0.0.0</tt> (Glances will listen on all the
available network interfaces) and TCP port is <tt class="docutils literal">61209</tt>.</p>
<p>In client/server mode, limits are set by the server side.</p>
<p>Glances is <tt class="docutils literal">IPv6</tt> compatible. Just use the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-B</span> ::</tt> option to bind to
all IPv6 addresses.</p>
<p>As an experimental feature, if Glances server is not detected by the
client, the latter will try to grab stats using the <tt class="docutils literal">SNMP</tt> protocol:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic output">client$ glances -c @snmpserver</span>
</pre>
<p>Note: Stats grabbed by SNMP request are limited (operating system dependent).</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="web-server-mode">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id9">Web Server Mode</a></h2>
<p>If you want to remotely monitor a machine, called <tt class="docutils literal">server</tt>, from any
device with a web browser, just run the server with the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-w</span></tt> option:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic output">server$ glances -w</span>
</pre>
<p>and on the client enter the following URL in your favorite web browser:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
http://@server:61208
</pre>
<p>where <tt class="docutils literal">@server</tt> is the IP address or hostname of the server.</p>
<p>To change the refresh rate of the page, just add the period in seconds between refreshes at the end of the URL, ie. to refresh every 10s, use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">http://@server:61208/10</span></tt>.</p>
<p>The Glances web interface follows responsive web design principles.</p>

<div class="section" id="configuration">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id13">Configuration</a></h1>
<p>No configuration file is mandatory to use Glances.</p>
<p>Furthermore a configuration file is needed to set up limits, disks or
network interfaces to hide and/or monitored processes list or to define
alias.</p>
<p>By default, the configuration file is under:</p>

</pre>
<p>Since Windows Vista and newer versions:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming
or
%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming
</pre>
<p>You can override the default configuration, located in one of the above
directories on your system, except for Windows.</p>
<p>Just copy the <tt class="docutils literal">glances.conf</tt> file to your <tt class="docutils literal">$XDG_CONFIG_HOME</tt> directory,
e.g., on Linux:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic output">mkdir -p $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/glances
cp /usr/share/doc/glances/glances.conf $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/glances/</span>
</pre>
<p>On OS X, you should copy the configuration file to
<tt class="docutils literal">~/Library/Application Support/glances/</tt>.</p>
<p><em>Configuration file description</em></p>
<p>Each plugin and export module can have a section.</p>
<p>Example for the CPU plugin:</p>

<img alt="images/processlist-top.png" src="images/processlist-top.png" />
<ul class="simple">
<li>CPU affinity (number of cores used by the process)</li>
<li>Extended memory information (swap, shared, text, lib, data and dirty on Linux)</li>
<li>Open threads, files and network sessions (TCP and UDP)</li>
<li>IO nice level</li>
</ul>
<p>The extended stats feature could be enabled using the --enable-process-extended option (command line) or the <tt class="docutils literal">e</tt> key (curses interface).</p>
<p><em>Note</em>: limit values can be overwritten in the configuration file under
the <tt class="docutils literal">[process]</tt> section.</p>

<div class="section" id="monitored-processes-list">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id26">Monitored Processes List</a></h2>
<p>The monitored processes list allows user, through the configuration file,
to group processes and quickly show if the number of running processes is
not good.</p>
<img alt="images/monitored.png" src="images/monitored.png" />
<p>Each item is defined by:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><tt class="docutils literal">description</tt>: description of the processes (max 16 chars).</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">regex</tt>: regular expression of the processes to monitor.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">command</tt> (optional): full path to shell command/script for extended
stat. Should return a single line string. Use with caution.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">countmin</tt> (optional): minimal number of processes. A warning will
be displayed if number of processes < count.</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal">countmax</tt> (optional): maximum number of processes. A warning will
be displayed if number of processes > count.</li>
</ul>
<p>Up to 10 items can be defined.</p>
<p>For example, if you want to monitor the Nginx processes on a Web server,
the following definition should do the job:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
[monitor]
list_1_description=Nginx server
list_1_regex=.*nginx.*
list_1_command=nginx -v
list_1_countmin=1
list_1_countmax=4
</pre>
<p>If you also want to monitor the PHP-FPM daemon processes, you should add
another item:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
[monitor]
list_1_description=Nginx server
list_1_regex=.*nginx.*
list_1_command=nginx -v
list_1_countmin=1
list_1_countmax=4
list_1_description=PHP-FPM
list_1_regex=.*php-fpm.*
list_1_countmin=1
list_1_countmax=20
</pre>
<p>In client/server mode, the list is defined on the server side.
A new method, called <cite>getAllMonitored</cite>, is available in the APIs and
get the JSON representation of the monitored processes list.</p>
<p>Alerts are set as following:</p>
<div class="line-block">
<div class="line">If number of processes is 0, then status is set to <tt class="docutils literal">"CRITICAL"</tt></div>
<div class="line">If number of processes is min < current < max, then status is set to <tt class="docutils literal">"OK"</tt></div>
<div class="line">Else status is set to <tt class="docutils literal">"WARNING"</tt></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="logs">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id27">Logs</a></h2>
<img alt="images/logs.png" src="images/logs.png" />
<p>A log messages list is displayed in the bottom of the screen if (and
only if):</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>at least one <tt class="docutils literal">WARNING</tt> or <tt class="docutils literal">CRITICAL</tt> alert was occurred</li>
<li>space is available in the bottom of the console/terminal</li>
</ul>
<p>Each alert message displays the following information:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>start datetime</li>
<li>duration if alert is terminated or <cite>ongoing</cite> if the alert is still in
progress</li>
<li>alert name</li>
<li>{min,avg,max} values or number of running processes for monitored
processes list alerts</li>
</ol>

<p>If you use Docker, Glances can help you to monitor your container. Glances uses the Docker API through the Docker-Py library.</p>

<div class="section" id="actions">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id29">Actions</a></h2>
<p>Glances can trigger actions on events.</p>
<p>By action, we mean all shell command line. For example, if you want to execute the foo.py script if the last 5 minutes load are critical then add the action line to the Glances configuration file:</p>
<pre class="code literal-block">
[load]
critical=5.0
critical_action=python /path/to/foo.py
</pre>
<p>All the stats are available in the command line through the use of the {{mustache}} syntax. Another example to create a log file containing used vs total disk space if a space trigger warning is reached:</p>
<pre class="code literal-block">
[fs]
warning=70
warning_action=echo {{mnt_point}} {{used}}/{{size}} > /tmp/fs.alert
</pre>
<p><em>Note</em>: You can use all the stats for the current plugin (see <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/wiki/The-Glances-2.x-API-How-to">https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/wiki/The-Glances-2.x-API-How-to</a> for the stats list)</p>

<p><em>InfluxDB</em></p>
<p>You can export statistics to an InfluxDB server (time series server). The connection should be defined in the Glances configuration file as following:</p>
<pre class="code literal-block">
[influxdb]
host=localhost
port=8086
user=root
password=root
db=glances
</pre>
<p>and run Glances with:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic prompt">$</span> glances --export-influxdb
</pre>
<p><em>Statsd</em></p>
<p>You can export statistics to a Statsd server (welcome to Graphite !). The connection should be defined in the Glances configuration file as following:</p>
<pre class="code literal-block">
[statsd]
host=localhost
port=8125
prefix=glances
</pre>
<p>Note: the prefix option is optionnal ('glances by default')</p>
<p>and run Glances with:</p>
<pre class="code console literal-block">
<span class="generic prompt">$</span> glances --export-statsd
</pre>
<p>Glances will generate stats as:</p>
<pre class="code literal-block">
