monitorix(8)		  Monitorix collector daemon		  monitorix(8)

NAME
       monitorix - a lightweight system monitoring tool

SYNOPSIS
       monitorix  -c  configfile  [-p pidfile] [-d none | graph[,graph] | all]
       [-v] [-n]

DESCRIPTION
       This Perl daemon starts the main Monitorix process, which gathers  sta‐
       tistics	about  the system it is running on and stores this information
       in a set of RRD files.

OPTIONS
       -c configfile
	      The default location of the configuration file varies  depending
	      on the operating system:

	      Linux:	    /etc/monitorix.conf
	      FreeBSD:	    /usr/local/etc/monitorix.conf

       -p pidfile
	      Stores the daemon's process ID into the specified file.

       -d none | graph[,graph] | all
	      Logs  more information about what monitorix is doing internally.
	      The keys reflect if the data collected must be displayed on each
	      case.  If	 all  is  defined,  the	 data collected of all enabled
	      graphs will be shown. If none is defined no data collected  will
	      be  shown.  Finally  it is also possible to define a comma-sepa‐
	      rated list of graph names from which show their data collected.
	      For a reference of all graph names check the  option  graph_name
	      in the monitorix.conf configuration file.

       -v     Displays version information.

       -n     This  argument will prevent Monitorix from daemonizing and force
	      it to run in the foreground.

SIGNALS
       On receipt of a SIGHUP, monitorix will close and reopen its  log	 file.
       This is useful in scripts which rotate and age log files.

       Note that the configuration file is not re-read.

FILES
       The following set of the files are created on every startup:

       <base_dir>/cgi/monitorix.conf.path
	       Stores the path of configfile.

       <base_dir>/cgi/monitorix.hplog
	       Stores the output of hplog command.

       <base_dir>/index.html
	       HTML main page.
