Monitoring And Debugging Memcached Server Using phpMemCachedAdmin
I have found a very cool program for monitoring and debugging Memcached server, it’s called phpMemcachedAdmin. This program allows to see in real-time (top-like) or from the start of the server, stats for get, set, delete, increment, decrement, evictions, reclaimed, cas command, as well as server stats (network, items, server version) with googlecharts and server internal configuration You can go further to see each server slabs, occupation, memory wasted and items (key & value).
Another part can execute commands to any memcached server : get, set, delete, flush_all, as well as execute any commands (like stats) with telnet To extract these informations, phpMemCacheAdmin uses, as you wish, direct communication with server, PECL Memcache or PECL Memcached API.
Explanation above is an excerpt from the website. This is a simple guide how do I install phpMemCachedAdmin.
Download phpMemCachedAdmin tarball
# wget http://phpmemcacheadmin.googlecode.com/files/phpMemcachedAdmin-1.2.1-r233.tar.gz
Since we will install in /var/www/html/memcached/ directory, run this command:
# mkdir -p /var/www/html/memcached # tar -xvzf phpMemcachedAdmin-1.2.1-r233.tar.gz -C /var/www/html/memcached/ # chmod 0777 /var/www/html/memcached/Config/Memcache.php
Apache Configuration
( i’m using apache as reverse proxy backend )
# cd /etc/httpd/conf.d # vi memcached.conf
