Description-en: System Information Gatherer And Reporter
One API to access system information regardless of the underlying platform
.
Hyperic's System Information Gatherer (SIGAR) is a cross-platform API for
collecting software inventory data. SIGAR is core of HQ's auto-discovery
functionality, and you can use it to extend auto-discovery behavior.
.
SIGAR includes support for Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX and
Mac OSX across a variety of versions and architectures. Users of the SIGAR
API are given portable access to inventory and monitoring data including:
.
* System memory, swap, cpu, load average, uptime, logins
* Per-process memory, cpu, credential info, state, arguments, environment,
open files
* File system detection and metrics
* Network interface detection, configuration information and metrics
* Network route and connection tables
.
This is ruby binding for the core API, which is implemented in pure C.
