Server Load - On ForumHome (*nix only)

[Farjad]

This is my first mod for vb.

a simple hack that shows server load on forumhome...

It only shows total server load in percent. ;)

enjoy & click install :)

Note: Only works on *nix

P.S. works with vB 3.5.3 & 3.5.4 (tested on both) no editing just upload product in admincp & upload images

Make sure you click install (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/vborg_miscactions.php?do=installhack&threadid=116134)

Updates:

Fixed Plugin (Was using global_start now using forumhome_complete)
Viewable by Admins only...
Viewable by SMods & Admins only...
Viewable by All Users...

Nice idea ;)

[rmxs]

No show to everyone...Bad idea this..its not possible to make just for admin??

or with option to select who can see the server load..

Would love to be able to turn it on and off, or restrict it to admin view only.
Nice hack:)
Installed.

[projectego]

Nice hack, should come in useful... Cheers. ;)

[FreshFroot]

I agree admin view will be better :)

[Rickie3]

*installed* where does this actually get the server load stats from?

Thanks for releasing this hack! :)

[Delphiprogrammi]

nice nice i love this

/me clicked install

[Rich]

If you want this to only be visible by the admins, do this:

Install the modification and then open the "forumhome_serverload" template.

At the very top of the template add:


<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 6">


Change the 6 to reflect your admins usergroup. It is 6 by default.

At the very bottom of the template add:

</if>

Now if you are an admin, you will se it and if you are not, you won't. You can add additional usergroups by adding a comma after the 6 and adding their usergroup.

(I didn't click install because i didn't install this. I just downloaded it to see what you named the template. lol)

[wizardan]

Thanks for the tip, Rich.
problem solved:)

[Delphiprogrammi]

you can allow this for multiple usergroups if you want .....


<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 5) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 6) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 7)">


at the bottom


</if>


5 , 6 , 7 are usergroup id's

5 = supermods
6= Admins
7=mods

:banana:

are you logged in as an admin ?? if you are then logout !

[rmxs]

are you logged in as an admin ?? if you are then logout !
im login with my test user account...and both of account admin and normal user can see it

[Tulsa]

Very nicely done. :)

Total server load based on what though?

[Farjad]

Well its based on the system info, as its using min(100, round(exec('ps ax | grep -c apache') / 256 * 100))

[Farjad]

im login with my test user account...and both of account admin and normal user can see it

Stupid question but what means "*nix"?
B.t.w. would be cool if there's a way to put this into the footer same as in the attached screenshot.

well ill try to make it, but i have made one for header if you would like that it will require template edit though...

If you have it already for the header I think can put the code as it is into the footer?

well, the prob is I am assuming you installed Admin only mod , so I do not know, lol and also your language that you are using is left to right so i guess thats the reason itsnot right.

[Ghanem]

..
The first screen shot was before I install the admin and super
The second was after, in addition, its with the original style
I wish thats the reason cos in that case it would be solved, but its not..
The following link is using the English language using the original style, still does not look correct..

[scottct1]

I installed this but not sure if its accurate, I am running a Dual CPU Dual Core system (It looks like I have 4 CPU's in my server), and my server load is only 0.59 and this mod is reporting that my server load is 30%.

Is this accurate?

[Guest210212002]

/me clicks install

Dual CPU VPS system, 40 people online, and my server load says 1%. Seems way low though.

[scottct1]

I have 1570 people online, in top my server load is .059 and it says my server load is 25%. Again I have a server with 4 CPU's, so I dont think this is measuring correctly in a multi processor enviroment.

[Rickie3]

i installed this yesterday then applied the update today,and its still reading zero on my board maybe it doesnt work for 3.5.0??

Your host has disabled the exec(); functions nothing todo about that ....

[Stop]

Why not Windows ?

[Delphiprogrammi]

Why not Windows ?

because ps is a unix function windows doesn't know it


ps ax | grep -c apache


who uses a windows server to host there sites anyway only crazy people do

[Stop]

so the server should be UNIX to get this work, not my computer, am I right ?

[Total666]

Yes , the server , not your computer ...

the same here then but mine is 3.5.4.

[SpaceStar]

Excellent - installed

[Rickie3]

mine is still stuck on 0 no change at all since install

[utw-Mephisto]

I would install it when I also can move it to the footer ... I would not mind template edits, but since this information is hardly needed on daily basis it would be better not to have it that obvious .. just my .02 cent

[Mr Chad]

worked fine :)

[titodj]

Nice.. Thanks...

[SkyCatcher]

It doesn't work on my forum :(

It always stays at 0.

I ran "ps ax | grep -c apache" and it said 14 and when I checked the forum it was at 0 again so somehow it's not getting results

[jwocky]

Does this work on FreeBSD ? I love the idea and look of this hack, but it stays at either 0% or 1% on my forum, so i'm assuming it doenst work for freebsd ?

[firstrebel]

Very useful, saves loggin in with SSH all the time. *clicks install*

[SkyCatcher]

Does this work on FreeBSD ? I love the idea and look of this hack, but it stays at either 0% or 1% on my forum, so i'm assuming it doenst work for freebsd ?

I'm using SuSE10 and it's not working...


I tried both ps ax | grep -c apache and ps ax | grep -c apache2 since SuSE 10 doesn't seem to respond well to apache and neither of them forum for the forum.

Both work in ssh.

Is there anything I have setup on my server to prevent the command from being executed? I mean, basically you're executing shell commands from php which makes me a little bit nervous.

[Aeolian]

isn't it server intensive to do top all the time.. considering you have a large forum..??
plz confirm..

[firstrebel]

Jut put it on the admin login page. No real need for anyone else to have this.

[bashy]

Hi

Mine says 1% and has done since installing this (as soon as it came out)
My server load is no less that 4% for the last few days....

What would cause this not to work properly please?

Same here.

[Nachtfalke]

Your host has disabled the exec(); functions nothing todo about that ....

...seems that my hoster has done this today. Everything went fine since the day I installed the hack, but today I got the message "exec, phpinfo, popen, proc_open() has been disabled for security reasons"

It's a pitty, I loved this hack.

[DrHUS]

3.6.1 worked fine .. Thank you

[nerofix]

Nice mods

[Cagonni]

it worked but is it possible to show %0.xx ?
it begins from %1 and i suppose it shows only integers.Is it possible to show decimal numbers?

installed.

[SCRIPT3R]

i've edited the image to stats, to more accurately reflect it's purpose (IMO)...
img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/stats.gif"
also, would like to appear beneath the statistics instead atop, any suggestion?

[SCRIPT3R]

Re: *nix...

this should show the average server load and server uptime in days.
$uptime = @exec('uptime');
preg_match("/averages?: ([0-9\.]+),[\s]+([0-9\.]+),[\s]+([0-9\.]+)/",$uptime,$avgs);
$uptime = explode(' up ', $uptime);
$uptime = explode(',', $uptime[1]);
$uptime = $uptime[0].', '.$uptime[1];
$start=mktime(0, 0, 0, 1, 1, date("Y"), 0);
$end=mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m"), date("j"), date("y"), 0);
$diff=$end-$start;
$days=$diff/86400;
$percentage=($uptime/$days) * 100;
$load=$avgs[1].",".$avgs[2].",".$avgs[3]."";
echo 'Average Load: '.$load;
echo 'Uptime: '.$uptime;

[Veer]

will work for 3.6.0?

[Silver_2000_)!]

Sorta strange

Single processor server running at load of 1.2 ( which is HIGH ) and this hack shows it as 13 %

I guess its assuming a load of 10 is 100% ...

Its also visible to all users even though I used the Supermods and admins version

seems this mod works fine to limit acces though

[MrPHD]

Installed and nice job.

[Cybershaolin]

Will this wok with 3.6.4 or could it be upgraded?

[Veer]

Installed on vb3.6.0

But its showing 0% all the time.

[Cybershaolin]

Then, it would be nice if this hack be upgraded to 3.6.X.

[Cybershaolin]

Anyone?

[orban]

$serverload_percent = min(100, round(exec('ps ax | grep -c apache') / 256 * 100));

What does this calculate? The number of Apache processes divided by 256?

[lanc3lot]

Can this be changed so it can be used with v3.6?

[justachump]

Installed on vb3.6.0

But its showing 0% all the time.

I am on vb3.6.4 and i got zero all the time too,, and im on linux server

[justachump]

Anyone?

:confused:

[SEYTAN_NL]

i installed this yesterday then applied the update today,and its still reading zero on my board maybe it doesnt work for 3.5.0??
The same with 3.5.4. & 3.6.2

[AMG021]

Can someone please port this hack to 3.6? because i get 0% all the time. And im on linux server

[Cybershaolin]

OK mine was working but suddenly it now sticks at 29% with or without traffic. What could cause that?

Could that be anything with the file permissions (attributes) on the server or with a service not activated.

My ISP re-installed the control panel after a crash. He brought the forum back online before re-installing the control panel. It's not working since that time (well, it's jammed at 29% like I said).

[fatal1980]

I'm using VB 3.6.4

It shows 1% regardless if my server load is 0.01 or 15.0

Any ideas?

[Cybershaolin]

Just too bad this one is not supported anymore. Is there a similar mod? Not the ones I saw that shows some info differently but one with a colored bars like this...

[benjaminbih]

works graet on 3.6.7, thnx

[Total666]

works graet on 3.6.7, thnx

So it is working on your 3.67 ??? Really ???? ..

[Total666]

So it is working on your 3.67 ??? Really ???? ..

BUMP --- Anyone have this working on 3.68 ??

[jshg46]

on vbulletin 3.6.8 this is how i made it work. instead of putting serverload images in the images directory just ftp the folder called serverload directly to the root, works like a charm

so im other word you should have the folder serverload in your forum root not inside the folder images.

[Cybershaolin]

Yes I have it working for 3.6.8 here without havin to put the server load directory in the root...

But the problem is that the bar is always green no matter how the load is.

With a server load showing at 20, I tried changing the values to something smaller in order to check if the bar would turns yellow but nothing. Made quite a few refresh screens but nothing?

Anybody has a clue? Maybe the conditions are uncorrect?

This is what I tried:


global $vbulletin;
if($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == '5' OR ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == '6' OR ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == '7' OR ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == '9' OR ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == '13'))))) {
$serverload_percent = min(100, round(exec('ps ax | grep -c apache') / 256 * 100));
$serverload_top = "<table border=0 width=402><tr><td align='left' height='0' width=402 style='border: #000000 1px solid; background-repeat: repeat-x'>";
if ($percent <= 30) $serverload_img = "loadbargreen.gif";
elseif ($serverload_percent <= 70) $serverload_img = "loadbaryellow.gif";
else $serverload_img = "loadbarred.gif";
$serverload_width = $serverload_percent * 4;
$serverload_bottom = "</td></tr></table>";
$search_text = '<!-- end logged-in users -->';
$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME'] = str_replace($search_text,
$search_text.fetch_template('forumhome_serverload' ),$vbulletin->templatecache['FORUMHOME']);
}
