kSar runs on your local desktop and connects via SSH to the remote server and collects the sysstat data. It's good for checking or reviewing server stats once in a while. If you need sustained graphing and reporting, then look into one of the other monitoring tools mentioned here.

Take a look at the "sysstat" package which will collect data over time. There's a java-based desktop app called "kSar" that can use this data to generate graphs.
I have sysstats already but want a graphing. ksar sounds appealing. I do not have physical access to this server so I need to access ksar through http on the server. Does it support that? Googling for the answer on how to do this but not finding what I want yet.

There are also other options, such as SNMP monitoring, Cacti, etc...
Is there a package I can get that will graph system resources such as CPU and disk I/O to an html file or something?
