+ libstatgrab is a library that provides cross platform + access to statistics about the system on which it's run. + It's written in C and presents a selection of useful + interfaces which can be used to access key system + statistics. The current list of statistics includes CPU + usage, memory utilisation, disk usage, process counts, + network traffic, disk I/O, and more. +
++ The current list of platforms is Solaris 2.x, Linux + 2.2/2.4/2.6, FreeBSD 4.x/5.x, NetBSD 1.6.x, OpenBSD 3.x, + DragonFly BSD 1.0, HP-UX, and Cygwin. The aim is to extend + this to include as many operating systems as possible. +
++ The package also includes a couple of useful tools. The + first, saidar, provides a + curses-based interface to viewing the current state of the + system. The second, statgrab, gives a sysctl-style + interface to the statistics gathered by libstatgrab. This + extends the use of libstatgrab to people writing scripts or + anything else that can't easily make C function calls. + Included with statgrab is a script to generate an + MRTG configuration file + to use statgrab. +

+ Version 0.12 of libstatgrab has been released.
+ Download it from one of our mirrors.
+
+ This release has some new features, bug fixes, and a minor + API change. More details have been added to the file + system statistics, linux partition detection has been + reworked, and compile errors on Linux 2.6 have been fixed. + Support has been added for Solaris 10 and FreeBSD 7. + There are also manual pages for all the tools. +
++ The duplex value in the network interface statistics has + changed name from "dup" to "duplex" - this breaks the API. + We plan to stabilise the API for a 1.0 release. As before, + the old name is available if SG_ENABLE_DEPRECATED is + defined. +
++ Official libstatgrab packages for Debian now + available. +
++ Thanks to the work of + Bartosz Fenski + libstatgrab is now available on debian. This replaces our + unofficial debian packages which will no longer be + updated. +
