Open-Source Monitoring Tool “Monitorix 3.12.0” Released

February 21, the development team of “Moitorix”, an open-source monitoring tool, released the latest version “Monitorix 3.12.0”.

Moitorix is a tool that collects and monitors information on system and system resources. Although being lightweight, it is designed to monitor various system resources and services. It was originally developed to be used on Linux/Unix, but it can also be used on embedded devices as well. It is made up of two programs, and one of which is “monitorix”, information collector, and the other is “monitorix.cgi”, a CGI script that displays the collected data. Since version 3, it includes its own stand-alone HTTP server function.

Monitorix 3.12 is the latest release following v3.11.0, released in March 2019. It introduces “phpfpm.pm”, a module that can collect PHP-FPM information, and “unbound.pm”, a module that can turn almost all monitored information into graphs. Just note that it can’t collect statistics on a remote server.

The bind.pm module has been updated to support the new version of BIND. Before this update, it used to rely on Perl XML::Simple to parse the output of BIND, but now it uses XML::LibXML.

The gensens.pm module for generic sensors now supports collecting battery information. Also, NFS graph for FreeBSD system has been improved.

For fail2ban module, how graph values are shown has been changed, and now you can choose between “absolute” and “rate”. There are many other feature improvements.
