StatsView is a GUI-based tool for viewing the output of the various utilities that produce system performance statistics. At the moment sar, iostat, vmstat mpstat and vxstat are supported. There is also a GUI to allow the collection of these statistics. It is also possible to collect and display Oracle statistics. Suggestions for other statistic types are welcome!
StatsView offers the following features:
StatsView is written in Perl5, using the Perl Tk extension library. I recommend that you use perl5.005_03 or later, and Tk800.014 or later, as StatsView has been tested with these versions. You will also need the Tk::GBARR add-on package for this version.
The graphing is done with gnuplot, and version 3.7 or later is required - a copy can be found in the gnuplot_src subdirectory.
