How to find out the load on the server?

Question

ubuntu

Hello. There is a site on the riendhosting server . Please tell me how you can determine the load on the server using windows, for example, for some time range.

The point is to understand when it is worth increasing the characteristics of the environment.

Maybe there is a popular solution or some manual?

Answer 3

> load on the server using windows
windows is a client or is it an OS on the server whose load you want to see?
If the client, then connecting via ssh - utilities top, htop (more advanced version) - for real-time analysis. Atop - possible in real time, but more for historical data - who and at what time (from processes) loaded the server
. If this is a server OS, then it is better to use the resource monitor of the OS itself.
In both cases, you can install something like mrtg - for resource visualization and monitoring. it will be possible to connect via an external port or subdomain.
