Hi All,<br><br>Was hoping someone could help me or at least steer me in the right direction when monitoring "memory usage" on an esx server. I have searched the web and newgroups only to find people talking about using esxtop and changing the hobbitclient-linux.sh script, when monitoring load and CPU. Unfortunately when changing the startup script to use esxtop the memory monitor column fails.<br><br>I considered writing a basic script to monitor the memory (example below), but am not sure how I would create the graphs to trend the mem usage.<br>###################<br>#!/bin/sh<br><br>COLUMN=mem<br>COLOR=green<br><br>cat /proc/vmware/mem |grep "Machine memory free" > /tmp/meminfo.txt<br><br>$BB $BBDISP "status $MACHINE.$COLUMN $COLOR `date`<br>`cat /tmp/meminfo.txt`<br>"<br>exit 0<br>###################<br><br>Does anyone have any better ideas or are doing anything different that could help resolve this dilemma?<br><br>Thanks in advance,<br>Ryan<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><hr>Sounds like?
