arclog archives the log files monthly. It strips off log entries that
belongs to previous months, and then compresses and saves them to archived
files named logfile.yyyymm.gz.
Currently, arclog supports Apache access log, Syslog, NTP, Apache 1 SSL
engine log and my own bracketed, modified ISO date/time log file formats,
and gzip and bzip2 compression methods. Several software projects log (or
can log) in a format compatible with the Apache access log, like CUPS,
ProFTPD, Pure-FTPd... etc., and arclog can archive their Apache-like log
files, too.
Beats is the platform for building lightweight, open source data
shippers for many types of operational data you want to enrich with
Logstash, search and analyze in Elasticsearch, and visualize in Kibana.
Whether you're interested in log files, infrastructure metrics, network
packets, or any other type of data, Beats serves as the foundation for
keeping a beat on your data.
Packetbeat is the open source data shipper that integrates with
Elasticsearch and Kibana to provide real-time analytics for web,
database, and other network protocols.
mcelog processes machine checks (in particular memory and CPU
hardware errors) on modern x86-based Unix systems and
produces human-readable output.
This software is heavily patched to work on FreeBSD systems,
and thus provides an extremely limited subset of features as
of this writing (for example, daemon mode is not currently
supported).
The primary purpose is to provide a way to decode MCE output
from the FreeBSD kernel into something more human-readable
using the command 'mcelog --no-dmi --ascii'.
FreeBSD conversion patches were originally written by John
Baldwin <jhb@freebsd.org> and later incorporated into this
port.
Puppet master is a Ruby application that compiles configurations
for any number of Puppet agent nodes, using Puppet code and various
other data sources. (For more info, see Overview of Puppet's
Architecture.)
Puppet Server is an application that runs on the Java Virtual Machine
(JVM) and provides the same services as the classic Puppet master
application. It mostly does this by running the existing Puppet
master code in several JRuby interpreters, but it replaces some
parts of the classic application with new services written in
Clojure.
scan_ffs(8) recovers accidential lost or deleted disklabels.
This is the life-saver of typos. If you have ever been working too long,
and just happened to type 'disklabel -rw da0 floppy', instead of 'diskla-
bel -rw fd0 floppy', you know what I am talking about.
This little program will take a raw disk device (which you might have to
create) that covers the whole disk, and finds all probable UFS/FFS parti-
tions on the disk. It has various options to make it go faster, and to
print out information to help in the reconstruction of the disklabel.
Ported from OpenBSD to FreeBSD 4/5 with support for UFS1 and UFS2.
TkDVD is a GUI to dvd+rw-tools and cdrecord. It allows burnning CDs
and DVDs easily.
Features:
* View the current command line that will be used to burn the CD/DVD
* Burn CD/DVD from iso images
* Create ISO images from files and CD/DVD
* CD/DVD Copy
* Can overburn CD/DVD
* Support multi session CD/DVD
* Add/delete/exclude file/directories and show current used space
* Can keep directory structure
* Options to choose iso9660 filesystem extension (like Joliet or
RockRidge extensions)
* Prevent burning if used space > DVD+R/RW capacity
* Show output of growisofs/mkisofs to view burned % and estimated
remaining time
wemux enhances tmux to make multi-user terminal multiplexing both easier and
more powerful. It allows users to host a wemux server and have clients join in
either:
* Mirror Mode gives clients (another SSH user on your machine) read-only access
to the session, allowing them to see you work, or
* Pair Mode allows the client and yourself to work in the same terminal (shared
cursor)
* Rogue Mode allows the client to pair or work independently in another window
(separate cursors) in the same tmux session.
It features multi-server support as well as user listing and notifications when
users attach/detach.
zfSnap is a simple sh script for creating ZFS snapshots. When called from
cron rolling snapshots can be created and deleted automatically. The main
advantage of zfSnap is that it is written in 100% pure /bin/sh, does not
require any additional software to run, and is simple to use.
zfSnap keeps all information about snapshot in snapshot name. zfs snapshot
names are in form: Timestamp--TTL where timestamp is date and time of
snapshot creation and TTL is Time To Live in human readable form.
syslog-ng is an enhanced log daemon, supporting a wide range of input and
output methods: syslog, unstructured text, message queues, databases (SQL
and NoSQL alike) and more.
Key features:
* receive and send RFC3164 and RFC5424 style syslog messages
* work with any kind of unstructured data
* receive and send JSON formatted messages
* classify and structure logs with builtin parsers (csv-parser(),
db-parser(), ...)
* normalize, crunch and process logs as they flow through the system
* hand on messages for further processing using message queues (like
AMQP), files or databases (like PostgreSQL or MongoDB).
