Linux Server HTML Health Report (Using Shell Script)

A shell script to generate Linux Server's health report in HTML

Introduction

SysAdmins continuoulsly need to monitor their infrastructure & while, there are numerous Monitoring Tools available for Linux to achieve this, nothing beats the simiplicity of an HTML Report that you can generate either by executing a shell script or by tucking it inside a CRON job. My script does exactly that.

How to use?

Just download the script & make it executable using chmod +x syshealth.sh. Now you can either execute it using sudo ./syshealth.sh or put it inside a CRON job.

Video (Script in action)

Watch this video to see the script in action.

Additional notes

This script also explains (I mean, along-with having the script to perform the intended tasks, this script also serves to demonstrate how tags can be used) how HTML tags can be used inside a shell script. You can modify it to suit your needs. You must run this script as root so as to see full disk-usage details. Normal user can't see other home-directories & hence du -sh won't return accurate details if run as non-root. To see what the output HTML file looks like, please see the HTML file packaged in this repository.
