Well, one of the tools we use at oursite is "mrtg" running on a linux box which collects snmp data and puts it into a pretty web graph that people who like that kind of thing like a lot.

However, I would prefer the output of "sar" myself.

Hi,

I don't know freeware products to do that....but I think there are not freeware products to do that on HP-UX by web.
Needless to say, I am always ready to accept contrary opinions.

Best regards,

Mark what means sar?

"sar" is an application that reports loads and loads of stats on the machine and comes with hpux. It just pours out all the figures with little attempt to format them but that makes it easier for us to format the data ourselves. You can check the man page for "sar" for details.

I answered to your question without more info....
Another tool is top, it always comes from HP-UX Core O.S. ('man top' for further details).
Anyway the best graph products are Measuerware and GlancePlus to monitor HP-UX utilization, sure you'll discard this possibility because they are not freeware and they don't work by web (as far as I know).
A Trial GlancePlus is on CD Applications.

I hope this helps you.

Best regards,
Ettore
