The Phoronix Test Suite will automatically monitor +the selected sensors while each test is running and at the end will then provide +the low and high thresholds for each sensor as well as the average. In addition, +the sensor results are then plotted on line graphs and can be viewed through the +PTS Results Viewer. This sensor detection and monitoring is done through <a href="http://www.lm-sensors.org/">LM_Sensors</a> +and ACPI interfaces. The GPU sensor monitoring is done through proprietary ATI +and NVIDIA extensions.</p> +<p>The Phoronix Test Suite is capable of measuring the GPU temperature, CPU temperature, +system temperature, battery power consumption, CPU voltage, +3.33V line voltage, ++5.00V line voltage, and +12.00V line voltage. Additional sensors will be supported +in the future.</p> +<p>The full list of supported sensor options can be found by running <em>phoronix-test-suite +sensor-options</em>. The sensors actually detected on the current system and their +values can be read by running <em>phoronix-test-suite sensors</em>. Selecting +sensors to monitor is performed through the <em>MONITOR</em> environmental variable. +As examples, to monitor just the CPU temperature while running the universe suite, +one would run <em>MONITOR=cpu.temp phoronix-test-suite benchmark universe</em>. +To monitor all sensors while running the Nexuiz game, one would run <em>MONITOR=all +phoronix-test-suite benchmark nexuiz</em>. To monitor the temperature and voltage +of the CPU, run <em>MONITOR=cpu.temp,cpu.voltage phoronix-test-suite benchmark +universe</em>. This feature works no matter the suite or test being run.</p> +<p>ACPI will automatically be used if it's supported on the system and LM_Sensors +will be used if it has previously been installed and configured (by running <em>sensors-detect</em> +as root).</p> +<p>Once the test(s) are completed, the sensor statistics are printed to the standard +output and the user is prompted to view the results with the PTS Results Viewer +in their web browser. The sensor graphs are saved to their default location of +<em>~/.phoronix-test-suite/system-monitor/</em>. At this time, sensor results +are not uploadable to PTS Global.</p> +<!-- END OF PTS AREA --> +</div></div><div class="pts_doc_fixed"><div class="pts_doc_bottom"><div style="float: left;"><a href="http://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/">Phoronix-Test-Suite.com</a></div><div style="float: right;">Copyright © 2008 by <a href="http://www.phoronixmedia.com/">Phoronix Media</a>.</div></div></div> +</body> +</html> |
