FrameFlow's Linux/SSH Swap Event Monitor connects to devices via SSH and monitors device swap usage size, percentage, and more. It keeps round-the-clock tabs on swap metrics and sends you alerts on the schedule that you choose, allowing you to customize the alert types and frequency.
✔ Documenting and alerting about swap usage size
✔ Receiving alerts about whether or not swap is enabled
The Linux/SSH Swap Event Monitor has dedicated alerting options for swap usage size and percentage, which lets you choose how to measure this metric. Use the option to alert on swap usage size to enter specific sizes in your preferred unit of data. Use the percentage option to measure swap usage size in terms of percentage. You can also use both of these options to receive alerts based on both metrics.

24x7 Linux Device Swap Status Updates
This event monitor also has two options that will alert you if swap is enabled or disabled, respectively. Using both of these options, you can receive an alert of your choice of severity whenever device swap is toggled from enabled to disabled and vice versa.

Device Swap Notification Preferences
Each time your SSH Swap Event Monitor runs, it generates data you can find in the Status tab of your event monitor. There are several options that let you include additional information in the event monitor's output. First, you can include a list of all detected swap devices in the event monitor's notifications. The same option exists for swap processes. As with our other Linux-focused monitors, you can also include a table of result data in the event monitor output. These options can help you record and track swap data over time.
