What is Komari?

This software monitors servers by collecting system metrics through lightweight agents deployed on target machines. Data flows to a central web interface where users visualize real-time statistics including CPU load, memory usage, disk space, and network throughput. The agent component reports measurements every second, while the server stores everything in local SQLite files unless configured otherwise.

FAQ

Why are disk statistics incorrect?

Komari filters disks using mount point and filesystem-type rules, which may exclude special mount points or file systems.

Why does memory usage differ from other tools?

Starting with Agent 1.1.40, Komari calculates memory usage the same way as htop. Cache and buffer memory are treated as available memory, which can make displayed usage differ from older versions.
