In order to allow the system-administrator to get information about the system's current status/health a function is required that displays these information. Those information could be obtained by logging in via SSH and then executing the correct commands, but the user might not have the required knowledge, skill or maybe doesn't want to use/enable SSH. Therefore a dialog is added to the administration that simply displays those information.
Reasons
user is inexperienced and doesn't know how to get all required information
user doesn't want to use/enable SSH
user wants a quick overview of the system in the administration
How did you implement it/them?
Find out if there is a script/tool that displays the required information:
There is a open source project: https://www.ezservermonitor.com/
The tool is a complete website so it has to be hosted on the system: [989a5104]
(Uses the same domain as the system but a different port)
