KDE System Guard, also known as KSysguard, is the KDE task manager and performance monitor. It can monitor both local and remote hosts. It can retrieve simple values or complex data such as tables and display this information in a variety of graphical displays. Displays can then be organized in work sheets. It also provides a detailed top-like process table.
While KDE System Guard is mostly used for local monitoring of system resources and processes, it is a robust tool for managing whole server farms.
KDE System Guard is a rewrite of the KDE 1.x task manager, KTop.
Famous quotes containing the words system and/or guard:
“Human beings are compelled to live within a lie, but they can be compelled to do so only because they are in fact capable of living in this way. Therefore not only does the system alienate humanity, but at the same time alienated humanity supports this system as its own involuntary masterplan, as a degenerate image of its own degeneration, as a record of people’s own failure as individuals.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
“One should never intend to do harm to others, but should always guard against the harm others might do to him.”
—Chinese proverb.
