The HSYCO System Monitor I/O Server is used to monitor several key hardware and operating system parameters of an HSYCO server:

  • Operating system boot time
  • HSYCO start time
  • Disk space
  • Java memory (used, free and maximum available memory)
  • Java total number of file descriptors currently open and number of threads used
  • Performance (CPU percent busy time, 1 minute load average, 5 minutes load average)
  • Console error messages
  • Internet connection status
  • Cameras status
  • I/O Servers status
  • Clock drift of remote HSYCO servers monitored through the HSYCOREMOTE I/O server.

It also supports the hardware watchdog if available and supported by the Linux operating system.


HSYCO Configuration

You can have only one HSYCO System Monitor I/O Server.

Add a SYSTEM I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters.

Note that the SYSTEM I/O Server doesn't count in the I/O servers license total, so you don't need an extra I/O Server license to use SYSTEM with HSYCO.


High Availability

  • Shutdown when inactive: defaults to false.

Options

ID Default Values Description
gui true true enable support for the UI object, UISET actions and USER commands
false disable UI support
internetmonitor true true enable internet connection check
false disable internet connection check
pollinterval 30 n ≥ 10 the data acquisition interval, in seconds
watchdog false true enable the Linux hardware watchdog
false disable the Linux hardware watchdog

Datapoints

ID Value R/W Description
time <val> R the system’s timestamp, in milliseconds
W sets the system’s timestamp. Valid formats are: time in milliseconds, "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss" and "yyyymmddhhmmss"

boot.time <date> R operating system boot time, formatted as "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss", for example: "2012-09-29 22:36:43"
cpu.usage <val> R CPU percent busy time
load.avg.1 <val> R the system’s load average during the last 60 seconds
load.avg.5 <val> R the system’s load average during the last 5 minutes
load.avg.15 <val> R the system’s load average during the last 15 minutes
process.files <val> R total number of file descriptors currently opened by the JVM process
process.threads <val> R total number of threads used by the JVM process
disk.free.percent <val> R the free storage space as a percentage of total available space
disk.free <val> R the free storage space in Mbytes

disk.errors <val> R only available when the root filesystem is BTRFS, this is the sum of all error counters as returned by the "btrfs devices stats /" command
memory.free <val> R the amount of free run-time memory of the Java virtual machine, in Mbyte
memory.max <val> R the maximum amount of run-time memory that could be used by the Java virtual machine, in Mbyte
memory.used <val> R the amount of run-time memory used by the Java virtual machine, in Mbyte
camera.total <val> R the total number of cameras defined
camera.errors <val> R the number of cameras that HSYCO is unable to access
camera.errors.list <list> R a comma separated list of the cameras having errors, or an empty string if there are no errors
io.total <val> R the total number of I/O servers defined
io.errors <val> R the number of I/O servers that HSYCO is unable to access
io.errors.list <list> R a comma separated list of the I/O servers having errors, or an empty string if there are no errors
internet.connection online R Internet access from HSYCO is working properly
offline HSYCO is unable to access the Internet
console.errors 0 R the console.log file contains no new errors
1 the console.log file contains new errors
watchdog active R watchdog is enabled and active
error watchdog is enabled but failed to update the watchdog device (/dev/watchdog)

User Interface

Hsycomonitor Object

A panel that monitors the system. These parameters are displayed:

  • system boot time
  • HSYCO start time
  • disk free space
  • memory in MBs: used, free, max
  • CPU usage in %: busy, load 1m, load 5m
  • faults: console, internet, cameras, I/O servers
  • error messages

UI Object hsycomonitor.png

Parameters

  • server ID: the ID of the server as specified in hsyco.ini
  • label: the text label on the panel. Can contain HTML tags
  • position: the object's position. Use the pixels or rows and columns coordinates format

Syntax

(hsycomonitor <server ID>; <label>; <position>)
