A Bash shell script that creates a beautiful, colorful HTML report which contains vital Linux server stats & information.
As a Linux SysAdmin, one of the tasks that you have to do on a regular basis is sending server health-check reports to your Manager(s). While it is not a daunting task, wouldn't it be better if you can spice up the reports to make them more pleasing to your Manager & to you? Reading a boring text file that contains some stats can be really unsatisfying 😉
So, I created a Bash shell script to generate a rich, vibrant, vividly colored HTML report that has interactive 3D charts & other colorful visual elements that are sure to please you. Nice way to impress your Manager 😉 You can customise it to include/exclude any of the stats 😊 Put inside a Cron job & configure the destination e-mail address 😊
As with any Shell script, make it executable after cloning/downloading & run as : -
shashank@shashank-dbserver:~$ sudo ./shell2html.sh
Report has been generated in /home/shashank/health_reports with file-name = /home/shashank/health_reports/Server-Health-Report-shashank-dbserver-170918-0432.html. Report has also been sent to $email_add.
shashank@shashank-dbserver:~$ Change $email_add to your email-address in script.
