Understanding Load Average

Please take a look for details:

Summary

So, what have we learned? Those three innocuous looking numbers in the LA triplet have a surprising amount of depth behind them.

The triplet is intended to provide you with some kind of information about how much work has been done on the system in the recent past (1 minute), the past (5 minutes) and the distant past (15 minutes).

As you will have discovered if you tried the LA Triplets quiz, there are problems:

1. The "load" is not the utilization but the total queue length.
2. They are point samples of three different time series.
3. They are exponentially-damped moving averages.
4. They are in the wrong order to represent trend information.

Schtasks

I set scheduled tasks with schtasks command to create for all servers.
This command create task which runs every 5 minutes.


schtasks /create /s "\\server" /U domain\username /p "password" /SC MINUTE /MO 5 /tn taskname /tr "scriptpath"

ERROR: passing the user credential on local connection.
You have to give server name in this format "\\server"

I use this script to run an application with another user rights.
Do not forget to encrypt the script with screnc.exe, and move the file extension vbe

Vbscript write log file entries to event log

this script reads log files at these server and writes every line to windows event log for the related server.
you can specify search keyword via regex for lines. Please find detailed information here http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms974570.aspx#scripting05_topic2
change regex details for yourself.
If there is any error when executing script, it sends you an email about the problem.

I use this script Global Array Manager (GAM) log entries for writing them to windows event log. So we can monitor these entries and raise error via MOM.

Python ssh paramiko run command at every server

I have more than 40 linux server and sometimes I need to check something at servers one by one. I got tired and started to use this script.
You have to install paramiko module http://www.lag.net/paramiko/ . You need to have same username for every server. This script asks you a username password and command to execute at servers.

#!/usr/bin/python
#import sys, os, base64, getpass, socket, traceback, termios, tty, select
import paramiko, getpass

serverList = ["ipadress1","ipadress2"]

command=raw_input("Command: ")
userName=raw_input("User: ")
userPass=getpass.getpass("Password: ")

for server in serverList:
        t = paramiko.Transport((server,22))
        try:
                t.connect(username=userName,password=userPass,hostkey=None)
        except:
                print server + ": Bad password or login!"
                t.close()
                break
        else:
                ch = t.open_channel(kind = "session")
                ch.exec_command(command)
                if (ch.recv_ready):
                        print server + ": " + ch.recv(1000)
                t.close()
