What is server monitoring?
Server monitoring is the continuous tracking of a server's resource usage and health - CPU load, memory, disk space and availability. A lightweight agent reports these metrics so you can spot a problem, such as a disk filling up or memory running out, before it turns into an outage.
Uptimewolf covers two related jobs in one place. Server monitors install an agent on Linux, Windows or macOS and stream CPU, RAM and disk usage with custom alert thresholds. Game-server monitors watch the game itself - uptime, latency, online players, slots and version - across 20 supported titles. Whether you run application servers, a homelab or a community game server, you see its real state at a glance.
Server monitoring in three steps
Install once, set your thresholds, and let the agent do the watching.
-
1
Install the agent
Run a single install command on your Linux, Windows or macOS machine. The agent is lightweight and stays out of the way.
-
2
Set usage thresholds
Choose the CPU, RAM and disk levels that should raise an alert - tuned per server, so a busy box and an idle one are judged fairly.
-
3
Get alerted
When a resource crosses its threshold, Uptimewolf notifies your chosen channel within seconds - long before users feel it.
The metrics that predict an outage
A site goes down because something underneath it ran out. These are the four signals worth watching.
RAM usage
Watch memory consumption and spot a leak early - before the kernel starts killing processes to stay alive.
Disk usage
A full disk takes everything down with it. Know you're approaching the limit while there's still time to act.
Custom usage alerts
Set your own thresholds per server and per metric, and route the alert to the channel your team watches.
- Linux
- Windows
- macOS
Monitoring built for game servers
Most monitoring tools stop at the website. Uptimewolf understands the game server itself.
Uptime & latency
Know the instant a server stops responding - and watch latency so you catch lag before your players rage-quit.
Players & slots
Track online player counts and slot usage in real time - useful for capacity planning and spotting a server that's quietly empty.
Status & version
Server status and version detection, so you know a server is up, reachable and running the build you expect.
20 games supported: Minecraft, Counter-Strike 1.6, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero, Day of Defeat, Team Fortress Classic, Counter-Strike: Source, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Counter-Strike 2, Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Day of Defeat: Source, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, Left 4 Dead, No More Room in Hell, Insurgency, Valheim, ARK: Survival Evolved, Rust, Garry's Mod and DayZ.
