iStat iPhone App for server monitoring

May 21st, 2009 Posted in Utilities, iPhone

I’ve been using the iStatPro dashboard widget on my Mac forever to monitor CPU, Hard Drive, Temperature, etc. iStat is a new application for the iPhone/iPod Touch that allows you to view iStatPro like information about your iPhone. The really cool feature is that you can monitor your Mac remotely on the iPhone with this app. You simply run the free iStat Server for Mac OS X and you’ll be able to point iStat at your Mac.

Of even more interest to me is that you can also monitor Linux and Solaris servers using it you install the iStat Server for Linux & Solaris on your server.

I’ve set this up on my server and it works great! NOTE: You’ll need either a dedicated server or a virtual private server to do this.

The app is currently only $1.99 on the iTunes App Store.
