I am happy to announce the availability of SysGlance, a simple and universal, Linux utility for generating a report for the host system.
Imagine encountering a problem with a Linux system service or device. Typically, you would search for a solution by Googling the issue, hoping to find a fix. In most cases, you would then turn to forums or guides for assistance.
Sysglance enables us to view information about the Linux system. This can be useful for understanding its basic composition, such as the operating system and network configuration. Additionally, in the event of a problem, it helps us identify where to begin further investigation.
In other words, SysGlance provides a quick overview of the most critical components and inner workings of your system.
SysGlance – Generate system report
Sysglance provides a comprehensive report about the system on which it is running. Currently, it does not have any parameters, so you simply execute it in the terminal or click the app icon (if you have installed the .deb package),. It generates a report containing various information about your Linux system.
Features of SysGlance:
Sysglance provides a comprehensive overview of the Linux operating system, including:
- System and OS information
- System uptime and load at 1, 5, and 15 minute intervals
- Available user accounts and users logged into the system
- General information about CPU, GPU, USB, and network cards
- File system partitions and disk space usage
- Free and used RAM in the system
- Top 10 processes in terms of memory usage, including user, PID, and start time
- Network device information, including public and private IP addresses
- List of services and open network ports
- List of errors/alerts in the log files since the last system boot.”
Download SysGlance
Ubuntu/Debian Systems:
As always, on Ubuntu/Debian systems, if you have uCareSystem installed the SysGlance is also available in the same repository so you just need to open a terminal and run:
sudo apt install sysglance
If you don’t have uCareSystem, or the Utappia PPA repository, you can download Sysglance:
and then you can install
sudo apt install /path/to/downloaded/sysglance
After installing it you can run it from the terminal:
sysglance
or search it from the applications menu and click the Sysglance icon:
Other Linux systems
On Linux systems other than Ubuntu or Debian derivatives, you can run the following commands:
cd /tmp wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SynergOps/sysglance/master/sysglance.sh chmod +x sysglance.sh sudo mv sysglance.sh /usr/bin/sysglance
Now you can run it from the terminal:
sysglance
