XMLSysInfo is a system monitoring daemon that replies to network queries with XML-encoded system information and statistics. This data can then be analyzed, graphed or otherwise presented by a front-end. It is BSD-licensed and free for anyone to use for any purpose.
Or, because it sounds so much better:
XSI is an agile, vertical XML application for mission-critical enterprise environments that leverages collective synergy to drive "outside of the box" thinking and formulate key objectives into a win-win game plan with a quality-driven approach that focuses on empowering key players to drive-up their core competencies and increase expectations with an all-around initiative to drive up the bottom-line.
It is currently under heavy development and in its "alpha" stage. The XML output grammar may still change a bit, but all in all, "beta" is approaching fast.
Here are some key features of "XMLSysInfo":
System information:
Hardware
CPUs and load distribution on CPU states
Interrupts
Memory and swap space
Operating system
Sensors:
Temperature
Fan RPM
Voltage
Disk drives
Indicators
...
Storage devices:
Filesystems
Disk (I/O)
RAID arrays (optional)
Network:
Information and statistics per interface
Packet filter statistics (optional)
Requirements:
libxml2
What's New in This Release:
Both major feature enhancements and major bugfixes made it into this release.
XSI now reports interesting information about processes on all supported operating systems, with the ability to suppress usernames from the output.
Usability was improved with a new -h[elp] command line parameter.
Bugfixes in the FreeBSD port plug a nasty memory leak and prevent a crash.
The NetBSD port is more robust.
Signal handling has been improved and fixed on Solaris.
A small (non-backwards compatible) fix was done in the XML Schema.
