Development of a monitoring module for physical and virtual servers: Advanced computing center case of the Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, Bucaramanga, Colombia
Abstract The management and administration of physical and virtual servers requires a series of periodic activities that allow to show the optimal operation and the fulfillment of its objective of providing computational services. The work of monitoring servers allows the allocation and use of adequate resources, as well as assertive decision making in strategies for projection and scalability of resources. This article presents the results found in the process of development and implementation of the monitoring module of physical and virtual servers of the Advanced Computing Center of the Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, Bucaramanga, Colombia, in which through the generation and display of reports in real time offer the coordinator of the center information of the current state of resources leading to the right decisions to improve the service provided at the level of efficiency, performance, among others. The results of the project were the design of the graphical interface, the development of the information system which was programmed with PHP language, the connection in real time with physical and virtual server made via SSH; the scripts programmed in platforms such as XenServer, Windows Server and Linux for CentOS, Debian and Ubuntu distributions.
