i had a look, cant find anything in PHP

swr

If the server is running Linux you can read the special files on the /proc filesystem. /proc/cpuinfo, /proc/meminfo, and so on.

This kind of thing is very platform-specific and outside of PHP's usual domain, so there aren't any built-in functions to do it. /proc on Linux just happens to be easily accessible.

Yes, that's exactly what the linked script does, and also checks a bunch of $_ENV[] variables (as PHP would refer to them).

On Windows machines there may be a msinfo32 that can be used (if it's there it should have a command-line interface hidden away somewhere. msinfo32 /? should bring it out).

You may want to have a look at:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsysinfo/

but because it is unix only there is no windows support. I guess this doesn't matter because the servers are your own?

I am trying to get a page that will check to see if its up, record the time, and any data into mysq, every 5-10 mins.
If down then take averages of its time down etc
