i-scream screenshots / overview

Date: Fri, 25 May 2001 16:20:46 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] An index page that shows all of the screenshots for the i-scream system. Also acts as a general 5 minute overview that we can show to people to give them a better idea of what the thing does from a user's point of view. Each thumbnail links to the original large image in either 16 or 256 colours GIF as appropriate. --- www/cms/screenshots/index.shtml | 241 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ www/cms/screenshots/index.xhtml | 241 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ www/screenshots/index.shtml | 241 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 723 insertions(+) create mode 100644 www/cms/screenshots/index.shtml create mode 100644 www/cms/screenshots/index.xhtml create mode 100644 www/screenshots/index.shtml diff --git a/www/cms/screenshots/index.shtml b/www/cms/screenshots/index.shtml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..692859f --- /dev/null +++ b/www/cms/screenshots/index.shtml @@ -0,0 +1,241 @@ + + + + + + + + i-scream screenshots / overview + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

+ i-scream + screenshots + (or the 5 minute + tour) + + This page provides a sequence of + screenshots to help you to gain a better understanding of the i-scream + distributed central monitoring system and how it may be applied in + networked environments. Click on the thumbnails to view the full + size screenshots. +
+	Reports Centre + (Web) + The i-scream reports centre provides a central access point to all + web-based reports that are provided by the i-scream system. Reports + are available to display information about the current status of an + individual machine and any alerts pertaining to either an individual + machine, or a summary of alerts for all machines. Historical + information about monitored machines may also be accessed from this point. +
+	Latest Information + (Web) + Here we are viewing the latest information provided by a host. Bars + are used to represent values such as disk space and free memory as this + makes it easier to spot casual problems. The small graph icons link + to historical reports of each field for the previous day. The choice + of fields to display on this page is stored in a separate configuration + file. +
+	Conient (Multiplatform + real-time client) + Conient is a real-time client that + can hook into an i-scream server to allow the user to view host + information as it passes through the server. The client displays + information provided by the hosts as well as the results of service checks + performed by the server on each host (eg FTP, Telnet, etc). Conient + is written in Java and can thus be run on most operating systems. +
+	Conient (Viewing + extra data) + Less important host information may be viewed in a seperate window to + avoid clutter in Conient's display. Details of the protocol for + host-to-server communications are freely available to developers. + The protocol itself is extensible and client programs such as Conient + display even unrecognised data from modified host programs. +
+	Conient + (Configuration) + Conient is fully configurable from within the program itself. + Multiple configurations may be saved. Conient can also be configured + to connect to a server through a firewall via an SSH tunnel or suchlike. +
+	ihost (Unix/Linux + host) + The ihost is currently the main Unix/Linux/FreeBSD host application for + i-scream. ihost is centrally configured by the server it connects to + and periodically sends information about the machine on which it is + running. The ihost is written in Perl, so can be easily altered to + send extra information to your i-scream server. +
+	WinHost (Windows + host) + The WinHost is similar in concept to the ihost, however, this one runs on + Windows NT/2000 servers. Again, the configuration is dynamically + obtained from the server. The WinHost is typically only present in + the Windows system tray. Double clicking on the system tray icon + will bring up a small window that allows data to be viewed and to force + reconfiguration with the server. +
+	Alerts (Email) + The i-scream server includes many alerting mechanisms. Simple email + alerts may be sent out if desired. Alert levels and frequencies may + be configured for the server. This screenshot shows the format of a + typical alert; the contents of which are of course configurable. +
+	Alerts (IRC bot) + Another i-scream alerter comes in the form of an interactive IRC bot. + This may reside in an IRC (Internet relay chat) channel and broadcasts + alerts if told to do so. This screenshot shows a typical interaction + with a user in the "Bersirc" IRC client. +
+	Alerts (Web page) + Individual alerts and a summary of all alerts raised by the i-scream + server may be viewed on the alerts web pages. These show the + different levels of alerts in configurable colours and provides specific + details about the alerts being raised for each machine. +
+	Alerts (Public + helpdesk display) + The reports centre also provides a + page that may be useful in configuring non-interactive public displays of + alerts. These displays automatically refresh the page periodically + and supported web browsers may also automatically scroll the page to allow + a large font to be employed for easier reading from a distance. +
+	Conient (Server queue + monitoring) + The Conient client may also be used + to monitor information about the i-scream server itself. Here we are + viewing the status of the internal queues within the server. This + shows that the server is performing healthily and that there are no + bottlenecks.
+	Historical reports + (Web) + Historical information is collated + by the i-scream server into (typically) a MySQL database. A separate + program is used to produce the historical web reports These may be browsed + via this web-based interface (see screenshot). The reports to be + generated for each machine and the size of the page are of course + configurable. +
+	Historical reports + (Metadata) + The historical report generation + also produces a number of other files that may be useful for third party + analysis tools. The chart itself is written as a GIF image, as well + as a small file suitable for including on PHP pages that specifies the + minimum and maximum values during the 24 hour period. A file + containing the raw plot data is also produced to enable the use of third + party on-the-fly plotting tools. +
+	The i-scream server + The server is distributed and may + therefore have multiple points of data entry and run on more than one + machine. This helps to reduce the amount of host traffic over large + networks and reduces potential bottlenecks. The server is written in + Java to allow it to run on most operating systems. This exciting + screenshot shows the i-scream server running ;-) +
