Csysdig Overview

Universal System Visibility With Native Container Support

Csysdig is a simple, intuitive, and fully customizable curses UI for sysdig.

Csysdig leverages the sysdig collection system, but exports it in a user interface that you can imagine as a combination of many popular command line monitoring tools: tools like strace, tcpdump, htop, iftop and lsof.

Just like sysdig, csysdig natively supports containers - cleanly and elegantly. Run csysdig in its own container, or directly on the host machine, for full visibility into all the containers running on the machine.

Csysdig is part of the sysdig package, so it will be included when you install sysdig on your machine.

Here are some resources to get you started with csysdig:

• A 3 minute video offering a good overview of the tool functionality.
• The man page
• An overview of the csysdig architecture, which explains how csysdig works and how to customize and extend it.
