glances [OPTIONS]
glances is a cross-platform curses-based monitoring tool that aims to present a maximum of information in a minimum of space, ideally fitting in a classic 80x24 terminal or larger for more details. It can adapt dynamically to the displayed information depending on the terminal size. It can also work in client/server mode. Remote monitoring can be performed via a terminal or web interface.
glances is written in Python and uses the psutil library to get information from your system.
Monitor local machine (standalone mode):
$ glances
To monitor the local machine with the web interface (Web UI), , run the following command line:
$ glances -w
then, open a web browser to the provided URL.
Monitor local machine and export stats to a CSV file:
$ glances --export csv --export-csv-file /tmp/glances.csv
Monitor local machine and export stats to an InfluxDB server with 5s refresh time (also possible to export to OpenTSDB, Cassandra, Statsd, ElasticSearch, RabbitMQ, and Riemann):
$ glances -t 5 --export influxdb
It is also possible to export stats to multiple endpoints:
$ glances -t 5 --export influxdb,statsd,csv
Start a Glances server (server mode):
$ glances -s
Connect Glances to a Glances server (client mode):
$ glances -c <ip_server>
Connect to a Glances server and export stats to a StatsD server:
$ glances -c <ip_server> --export statsd
Start the client browser (browser mode):
$ glances --browser
